PARADOXES OF POWER: REFLECTIONS ON THE THATCHER INTERLUDE

"Thumb through the index of almost any study of the Thatcher years - biographical, scholarly or journalistic - and you will come across the name of Sir Alfred Sherman." "Born in 1919 in London's East End, until 1948 Sherman was a Communist and fought in the Spanish Civil War. But he ended up an indefatigable free-market crusader. The book describes his early relationship with Sir Keith Joseph and his own role in the formation of the Centre for Policy Studies in 1974."--BOOK JACKET.
