Another volume in The World To-Day series, this 9th title serves to clarify and explain the significance and working of the islands of Britain, rather than the British Empire. The various systems -- of classes, churches, political institutions, government, law, -- the social background, the community responsibilities are concisely described and lead to the conclusion that ""British democracy is a democracy that "", that the experimenting suits the particular case and needs and will lead to balance. A worthy addition.
