 Review 
"A truly comprehensive and authoritative guide on British politics written by some of the most astute commentators and political scientists on the subject. Up to date, well written, great for students starting out and useful for old hands wanting to check their facts."\nKeith Dowding, Australian National University, Australia 
"Politics UK provides a solid foundation on the key concepts and themes of British politics for undergraduate students at an American university. My students often begin their course with a cursory knowledge of British politics and thus I need a textbook that immerses them without overwhelming them― and Politics UK delivers exactly that. The material within each chapter of this edited volume provides the most substantial overview of British politics available while remaining accessible to students new to the subject. Of particular note are the inclusion of numerous charts, tables, figures and photographs that let my students 'see' British politics. In terms of comprehensive coverage, appropriate level of writing, helpful supplemental material and timely coverage of contemporary events, there is no better textbook on the market."\nNeal Glen Jesse, Bowling Green State University, USA\n"Politics UK provides a thorough introduction to the main topics in political science and guides the reader through these topics in a way that is critical, clear and approachable."\nNora Siklodi, University of Portsmouth, UK 
"It’s great to see the new edition of Politics UK. It is an excellent textbook and a super entry point to understanding more about British Politics. I love the way that the ‘and another thing’ sections bring stories that make the more academic material come alive. The updates are well addressed and it’s great to see the new material in the Representative process, updating the textbook with regards to contemporary concerns."\nJoanie Willet, University of Exeter, U

The Cool study has the potential to transform the way we think about science and religion. Williams, a medical scientist with an expertise in this area and a straight-up style that is engaging to read, begins by analysing the design of the study. He then boldly predicts what the results might be if the Near Death Experience (NDE) is a real phenomenon. Williams then goes out on a limb and assumes that the results are positive. This has incredible implications as the evidence from NDEs shows that Hell probably exists. Also Williams examines the fact that not everyone has an NDE, and asks the question "why?" suggesting some extremely controversial and disturbing answers. Finally he looks at the massive impact this should have on our thinking and the way we behave towards others. In particular he focuses on how this should affect our view of the different religions, and ultimately asks the question - "Are any or none right?" Cool About Cool will become the must read book once the results of the COOL study are published as it addresses all the big questions raised and suggests some highly revolutionary answers to the way mankind should view himself. (NB This book is the sister book of AWARE of AWARE, so there is no need to buy both)
