Reviews
Brummer provides an inspiring list of reasons to be optimistic about British business. -John Kay, co-author of Radical Uncertainty Thank goodness for Alex Brummer, someone who closely follows what is happening in the bowels of British business and brings back a mainly uplifting account of the dynamic and innovative core that will see the country prospering in the post-Brexit era. -David Goodhart, author of Head, Hand, Heart Alex Brummer's powerful vision of a positive post-Brexit UK future is heartening - but as he himself acknowledges, it depends on singlemindedly protecting, building on and enhancing current strengths. I hope for all our sakes that this can indeed be done. -Vicky Pryce, former Joint Head, UK Government Economic Service
