Peter Hennessy (Lord Hennessy of Nympsfield), author, broadcaster and Attlee Professor of Contemporary British History, Queen Mary, University of London
"Whether you’re a Prime Minister or a President, a commentator or an academic or simply someone who wants to know how this country works you will want to know How Parliament Works. Now more than ever. This book will tell you."
