Industry Reviews
'Alex Wright has brought together a range of contributors - from diehard anti-devolutionists, enthusiastic devolutionists to supporters of Scottish independence as well as some distinguished scholars - in a fascinating and important contribution to the revolving politics of Scottish devolution. Many of the issues which have dominated the first year of the Scottish Parliament are analyzed and debated here. Wright's introduction sets out the debates lucidly and informatively.' Professor James Mitchell, University of Strathclyde, UK '...this book, at present, represents the best available for lecturers teaching Scottish politics...' The British Journal of Politics and International Relations '...a work of high standard...' Parliamentary Affairs '...particularly insightful in highlighting the uncertainity and flux surrounding many of the financial arrangements of the devolution settlement...' Scottish Geographic Journal '...there are clear signs that Tony Blair little realises the implications of the [devolution] process his Government has set in motion...a title such as this would be useful bedside reading for him...' Talking Politics 'This book...does provide a valuable overview and analysis of the issues. It will...be a useful point of reference for future analysis of the impact of devolution, outside as well as inside Scotland.' Public Administration
