Who Runs This Place? - the Anatomy of Britain in the 21st Century
|
|
London: John Murray. New in New dust jacket. 2004. First Edition. Hard Cover. 418 pages. NEW BOOK. More than forty years ago, journalist Anthony Sampson wrote his "Anatomy of Britain". It rapidly became a genuine (not merely advertising blurb) "must read" for business leaders, politicians, and anyone who wanted a thoughtful analysis of the way Britain worked. It was in later years followed up by "The New Anatomy ...", "The Changing Anatomy ...", and others as he updated and adapted his analysis to take account of the changing scene. In 2004 he gave the world what was sadly to be his last book (he died in December that year) - "Who runs this place? The anatomy of Britain in the 21st century". A personal friend and official biographer of Nelson Mandela, Anthony Sampson also wrote several deeply probing investigative works into the operation of major industries including international banking, armaments and oil; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall . more information
