Description  

20th Century Britain provides an authoritative and accessible survey of contemporary research on economic activity, society, political development and culture. Written by leading academics, it examines recent advances in scholarship and gives a grounding in established approaches and topics.　　

The first part comprises thematic essays covering the whole of the twentieth century, including chapters on　the economy, economic management, big business, parliamentary　politics,　leisure, work, health, international economic relations and empire. It uncovers key areas of equality and diversity in chapters on women,　living standards,　social mobility, ethnicity and multiculturalism, and gender and sexuality. The most recent　subfields of historical studies are also explored, including disability history and environmental economic history. The second part focuses on seismic events and topics covering shorter timeframes, including the World Wars, interwar Depression, Britain and European integration, sexual behaviours, civil society, the 1960s cultural revolution and resisting racism.

This collection provides an essential guide to current academic thinking on the most important elements of twentieth-century British history and is a useful tool for all students and scholars interested in modern Britain.
