Written in a clear and accessible way, it is an excellent reference textbook for undergraduate students. It is also highly recommended reading for anyone in continental Europe seeking to better understand the long-term causes, key facts, and political implications of Brexit.”Edoardo Bressanelli, Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, Pisa, Italy“This timely third edition provides students and general readers with a compact and accessible analysis of Britain’s long and troubled relationship with European integration. Covering the period from 1945 to the present, it explains Britain’s absence from the founding of the European Community, its complex membership from 1973, the politics and consequences of Brexit, and contemporary dilemmas of UK–EU relations after withdrawal. Cogently written, this historically informed analysis is a valuable guide to one of the central questions in modern British politics.”Gary Marks, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA, and European University Institute, Florence, Italy.
