A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

From early on, Gordon Brown proved to be a brilliant student with a pronounced social conscience. He enjoyed a colourful career at Edinburgh University where he was rector while still a student. From there he began the hard grind of politics in the Labour Party to emerge at the top - if not at Number 10, then next door. GORDON BROWN: THE BIOGRAPHY discloses for the first time the true story of the struggle for the Labour leadership in 1994 and investigates the origins of Brown's vision for Britain - the mobilisation of what George Orwell called 'the British genius', the potential in all of us, the talent to adapt, invent and use our skills. This biography will take us behind the scenes at the highest reaches of the Blair administration.
