Cassell's Companion to 20th-century British History by Pat Thane

Covers the period from 1900 to the age of Blair and New Labour. Its 750+ entries not only deal with key political, diplomatic and military events and developments but also provide in-depth coverage of economic, social and cultural matters. As well as offering a plethora of briefer factual entries delivering biographical data, defining essential terms and outlining key legislation, the dictionary also delivers a number of longer thematic articles treating important aspects of the period in question.
Pat Thane was Professor of Contemporary History at Sussex University and is now the Leverhulme Professor of Contemporary British History at the Institute of Historical Research, London. She has published a number of books and articles on the history of welfare, of women and of Labour.
