Over to You, Mr Brown by Anthony Giddens

Over to You, Mr Brown by Anthony Giddens

Anthony Giddens sets out his agenda for the New Labour of today, who stand once again at a decisive point in its history. He argues that a change of leadership can help reinvigorate the party, but winning a fourth term of government will be impossible without reinvigorating Labours ideological position and policy outlook.

"The immense virtue of Anthony Giddens's brilliant book is that it preaches against complacency.. Giddens sets out admirably his own picture of the social democratic future."
Charles Clarke, The Guardian

"Provides an important route map for progress [and] a valuable corrective to the collective amnesia that can afflict a reckoning of the government's record."
David Milliband, The Observer

"Giddens makes a weighty and significant contribution, serving up a rich diet of thoughts, ideas and policies."
Alan Milburn, New Statesman

"Over to You will prove accessible and stimulating reading."
Michael White, Times Literary Supplement

"Packed full of thoughtful observations and practical policy proposals, on matters as diverse as the labour market, immigration and multiculturalism."
Parliamentary Affairs

"Clearly written, and easy to read, this book makes for interesting reading for those engaged with current politics and it will be interesting to see if some of the policy suggestions are adopted by Brown."
Sociology

"Forms a very useful guide to the concerns of those installing themselves at new desks across Whitehall."
Roy Bacon, Defence Focus

"Perhaps the most important thing about this stimulating book is that it shows a new way of thinking about welfare."
Ranier Fsadni, Times of Malta

"In Over to You, Mr Brown [Giddens] has produced another restless tour de horizon, taking in most of the main axes of contemporary political debate."
Nick Pearce, Progress

"I would be delighted if Brown were to accept Giddens's advice on the future direction of policy laid out in this book."
Clare Short, The House Magazine

Anthony Giddens is the former Director of the LSE and a fellow ofKing's College Cambridge.
