This book offers an interesting and challenging insight into the evolution of British-German relations within the context of European integration in the last half of the 20th century. It is one of the first substantial and interdisciplinary attempts to analyze the volatile British-German relationship since World War II. It argues that although British-German relations were difficult throughout the post-World War II period, since the change of government in 1997 in Britain and 1998 in Germany, both countries have developed a much more constructive policy towards each other.
