Praise for previous editions ‘The Bible of General Elections.’ – David Dimbleby, BBC ‘It’s popular academic writing at its best, combining a clear narrative (using anecdotes and quotes garnered from more than 300 background interviews) with lots of solid, meaty number-crunching.’ – The Guardian ‘Dennis Kavanagh and Philip Cowley have penned a political thriller … The book is distinguished by the quality of its sources: the ministers, aides and strategists who open up to these academics in a way they might not to journalists.’ – The Observer ‘Indispensable.’ – Matthew d’Ancona, The Telegraph ‘Mandelson and Blair’s books will get all the attention, but if you want real insight into the last election, Kavanagh and Cowley look like they’re on the money.’ – London Evening Standard ‘The quality of the analysis is as sharp as ever.’ – Fabian Review ‘… a riveting read … this is easily the best political book of the year.’ – PoliticalBetting.com ‘… a formidable achievement … The studies have become by now almost part of our democratic fabric.’ – The Listener ‘The best series anywhere on national elections.’ – Annals of American Academy of Political and Social Science
