Über den Autor
James Hinton, Professor Emeritus at the University of Warwick, has published widely on the social history of twentieth-century Britain. His early work in labour history included The First Shop Stewards' Movement (1973) and Labour and Socialism (1983). A spell of intense political activism in the 1980s anti-nuclear movement was reflected in Protests and Visions. Peace Politics in Twentieth-Century Britain (1989). More recently he haspublished monographs on two contrasting groups of active citizens during the second world war: Shop Floor Citizens (1994), and Women and Social Leadership (2002). Following his work on the Mass Observation diaries, he is now engaged on a full-scale history of Mass Observation.
