An A to Z of British Life gives up-to-date information on all aspects of British life and institutions. It explains everything that other nationalities find interesting, amusing, puzzling or even frustrating about Britain and the British. Important public events, major government posts and well-known organizations of all kinds are described.
Interesting, puzzling or amusing aspects of life in contemporary Britain are explained in over 3000 alphabetically arranged entries, providing up-to-date information on the media, sport, entertainment, people in the news, food, education, art, historical events and important places. Extensive cross-references enable students to find subjects easily. A thematic index encourages students to follow their own paths through the material, and provides a framework for studying topics. The appendices include detailed maps of the UK and other useful information in chart or list form.
