Margaret Thatcher - Peter Just

The story of Margaret Thatcher'spost-premiership years is a tale of high drama and low farce, with, at itsheart, one extraordinary woman. Margaret Thatcher enjoyed perhaps one of themost consequential political afterlives in British history. No longer in officebut never really out of power, she was not only one of the most impactful PrimeMinisters the UK has ever had; she was also one of the most impactful formerPrime Ministers the UK has ever had. British politics today undoubtedlyreflects Thatcher's time in No. 10, but it is also shaped by her later life andhow people reacted and still react to it. To mark the centenary of her birth, MargaretThatcher: Life After Downing Street provides a radical reassessment of howThatcher's premier emeritus years have been viewed to date. Covering the fourmain areas of her work after Downing Street - philosophy, party, policy andperformance - and analysing her continued and continuing influence on theConservative leaders and Prime Ministers of all parties who followed her, itdemonstrates why, however small the politics may or may not have got since1990, Margaret Thatcher is still big.
