| Synopsis: |
In the decades after the war Britain underwent swift and dramatic change. It no longer ruled an Empire and its influence as a world power steadily declined, although it tried to remain dominant in world affairs. However, Britain grew closer to its European neighbours and is still an important global economy. The face of Britain was very different by the nineties. A large influx of immigrants produced a colourful multi-cultural society. Traditional values were challenged with women taking on similar roles to men in the workplace. Huge advances in technology, faster than in any other period of history, have contributed to the changes. From spying during the Cold War to the first woman Prime Minister, you can read the fascinating history of how Post-War Britain adjusted to these events in the pages of this book. |
