‘Refreshingly free from jargon, self-delusion or political partisanship, if you want to know why everything seems to be going wrong for the West, you must read this book.’
Tony Abbott, former Prime Minister of Australia
‘A hopeful and compelling case for a modern state and revitalized communities, recognizing that markets alone will not create a fair and prosperous society. Essential reading across the spectrum.’
Claire Ainsley, Executive Director of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and author of The New Working Class: How to Win Hearts, Minds and Votes
‘This is an important attempt to chart a way forward for the Conservative Party by an author who has been at the heart of government. Nick Timothy seeks to do for the Conservative Party what Anthony Crosland tried to do many years ago for the Labour Party. I hope that he is more successful.’
Vernon Bogdanor, Professor of Government, King’s College, London
‘This is an essential book for anyone interested in understanding the forces driving this age of upheaval. It is a book about political power and the power of politics to effect lasting change. And it boldly explains why liberals keep getting it wrong.’
Jason Cowley, Editor of The New Statesman
‘Nick Timothy has long been one of the most imaginative and important writers on the nature and future of conservatism. But this superb book should be read by anyone with an interest in our changing world, the political response to it, and the path forward from an era of turmoil.’
Matthew d’Ancona, Editor and Partner, Tortoise Media
‘There is much in this book I don’t agree with and much I do, but there wasn’t a page I didn’t find absorbing and challenging. I find Nick Timothy one of the most interesting modern Conservative thinkers and he has written a really interesting, important book which demands to be read.’
Daniel Finkelstein, Conservative peer and Times columnist
‘Where does the anger come from? Should capitalism be tamed? Did liberal reform over-reach? Nick Timothy, reflecting in the calm after the storm of office, has produced an analysis that is essential reading, whether you’re from the right or the left, or simply a “neutral” who is trying to understand our baffling times.’
Gary Gibbon, Political Editor, Channel Four News
‘Nick Timothy is one of the few thinkers on the right who understands the dangers of untrammelled free-markets and the value of community. His ideas deserve a hearing from socialists as well as conservatives.’
Maurice Glasman, Labour peer and founder of Blue Labour
‘Nick Timothy was briefly at the centre of power under Theresa May but this book could be more influential than his time in hands-on politics. He has broken with the old political “packages” and crystallized a new centre of British politics, which combines small-c conservative common sense on many of the big social and cultural issues with a sense of economic injustice,
