Rezensionen
"This is a fascinating, authoritative and eminently readable history of the changing relationship between prime ministers and the media. As one of the country's leading historians of politics and the press, Colin Seymour-Ure offers some highly original insights in a book which should be required reading for anyone with an interest in politics or political communication." Steven Barnett, University of Westminster <!--end--> "Nevertheless, the book is clearly written enough to make it a good eaching tool and it contains enough insights (and historical nuggets) to satisfy an academic audience too."
