  This book provides an accessible introduction to British general elections - the results, the voting patterns and the implications for our understanding of British politics. As well as including a new chapter on the 1992 Conservative victory, this second edition includes expanded coverage of elections from 1945 to 1970. The chapters on parties, election management, voting behaviour and the impact of elections have been rewritten to take account of new research and the changes in attitude revealed by the 1992 data. A new chapter has been included on the constitutional future, as Britain moves into the 21st century with an electoral system largely constructed in the 19th.
