"This is awesome!" Isabelle Engeli, University of Bath, customer review "Essential, effervescent reading for anyone wishing to gain an insight into the rapidly evolving politics of our time" Judith Haire, customer review "An accessible series of thought-provoking posts, Flinders draws on political science to bring a fresh interpretation to many of today's most topical political events." Claire AinsleyJoseph Rowntree Foundation "What an engaging and FUN book! Flinders' thoughts are accessible, challenging and insightful. A must-read not just for politics academics but for anyone interested in the apparent `madness' of our contemporary democracy." Angelia R. Wilson, University of Manchester "A skilfully crafted succession of humorous, scholarly and thought provoking insights into contemporary democratic politics and more....should most definitely be on the coffee tables of all serious politicos." Rosie Campbell, Birkbeck University "This a book that the interested reader can read a couple of chapters of before bed or on the train and get insight, enlightenment and an occasional smile. It captures many of the issues and discontents facing many democracies and begins to talk about how they might be addressed." Gerry Stoker, University of Southampton and University of Canberra "A brilliant effort by one of our most prolific writers to engage us in the public dialogue so urgently needed in a world of Trumps, Brexits and other populist challenges." Melvin J. Dubnick, University of New Hampshire "Democratic politics is a glorious, dangerous, and ever-changing game. These short commentaries are insightful, easily read, and just as lively as the game itself." Alasdair Roberts, University of Missouri "An extremely unusual, accessible and innovative way of getting across crucial messages not only about the importance of democracy but how it affects a whole range of aspects of our lives. I hope that people will find it as entertaining and intriguing as I do." Rt. Hon, the Prof Lord Blunkett "A very elegant collection of concise comments on contemporary politics - witty, thought-provoking and a great read." Mark Bovens, Utrecht University School of Governance
