"Schumann has written a timely and important anthropological assessment of power in government and the roles which politicians, civil servants and other political leaders play in social and cultural change in a devolving United Kingdom. This is work at the cutting edge of political anthropology today."--Thomas M. Wilson, Professor of Anthropology, Binghamton University, SUNY
