The most cogent analysis of political economy and the politics of the 1980s that I’ve read. The annex on the new Conservatism is also highly lucid and compares unfavourably to more recent politics’ lack of a coherent conceptual basis. Also surprisingly readable - the detailed contents pages help but not much that I wanted to skim.

Wonderful autobiography of a much underated British Chancellor of the Exchequer (Finance Minister or Treasurer to those uninitiated in the ancient titles of some British political offices). His office next door to the Prime Minister at 10 Downing Street, is proof of his importance inthe hierarchy. Britain's new Prime Minister, Gordon Brown was Chancellor since the first election of Tony Blair

Forget about Wikipedia, read normal books.
It is a great political analysys of events which created Thatcherism written by one of the leading architects.

For my Christian friends, the Free Presbyterian Lord Chancellor's qualities shine through when Lawson speaks of the man. Lawson is a top notch chap who responds to my letters.

This should be called "Lullaby of a Tory Radical", it is so sleep inducing. I couldn't even bring myself to finish the book (I got about halfway through before giving it up as a bad job).
