Overview
This book explores the political ideas that shaped post-war Britain. It does so by examining the history of Penguin Books, a publisher that played an important role in circulating ideas. By situating the publisher’s books in their respective historical contexts, the book constructs a new story about post-war Britain. It suggests that the wartime period ushered in a ‘meritocratic moment’ in Britain’s political history that was eclipsed from the mid-1970s.
