Seventy Serious Years The Political Quarterly 1930-2000

The Political Quarterly was founded in 1930 by Kingsley Martin, William Robson, and Leonard Woolf, with help from George Bernard Shaw. The journal was intended to be a bridge between specialists, experts, and the general public; it discussed the great problems of the day from a progressive perspective, writing at a demanding intellectual level, but always in plain English.This book sets The Political Quarterly in the context of its day, describing the unusual collaboration, for almost thirty years, of Woolf and Robson. The book also shows how the journal mirrored the concerns of the 1930s and 1940s, and includes a brief history of how a small but influential journal is run.Crick, Bernard is the author of 'Seventy Serious Years The Political Quarterly 1930-2000' with ISBN 9780631215974 and ISBN 0631215972.
