This riveting new history shows how having an empire and losing it has shaped modern Britain. Drawing on a mass of original research into the thoughts and feelings of the British people, pop culture, sport and media, Imperial Island tells a story of people on the move and of people trapped in the past, of the end of empire and the birth of multiculturalism, a chronicle of violence and a testament to togetherness.

Were these actions sinister, or were they just examples of governmental incompetence?

Told with immense levity and grave understanding, this article - available for the first time as an audio program - details a turning point in women's health care legislation.
