THE MISSING HEART OF EUROPE: Does Britain hold the key to the future of the Continent?

THE MISSING HEART OF EUROPE: Does Britain hold the key to the future of the Continent?

Frederick Raphael
0/5 ( ratings)
What is it to be British? Is our way of life essentially different from that of the French, Germans and Italians? Does it matter? Can nation states flourish in an integrated Greater Europe?

This very personal exploration of the European peoples, their history, law, sense of humour, business habits, their political culture and attitude to authority, reveals a deep fault line that runs right across the continent. Understanding it transforms and illuminates the debate about Britain’s position on the Euro, the Constitution and the Union itself.

Each chapter is a fascinating essay on its own - but taken together they build a formidable case for a radical shift in our whole European strategy.

The book is a tour-de-force of sharp insights and original ideas. Going well beyond politics, it highlights the values, traditions and uniqueness of this country, so dangerously taken for granted.

Written with passion and great fluency by one well versed in life on both sides of the channel, The Missing Heart of Europe is controversial, thought provoking, yet readily accessible to the general reader.
