'the nuts and bolts of the general election' - Gillian Peele, Times Educational Supplement

'The most useful election books are those which chart the nuts and bolts of the electoral process. The seventh edition of Elections in Britain: A Voter's Guide... is a straightforward factual account of how the British electoral system works.
