Chris Cook, a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, was educated at St Catherine’s College, Cambridge, before taking his doctorate at Nuffield College Oxford. Formerly Head of the Modern Archives Unit at the London School of Economics, he is co-author (with John Stevenson) of Britain in the Depression, Other publications include the Dictionary of Historical Terms and (with John Paxton) and European Political Facts of the Twentieth Century.
'Everyone involved in the history of democracy, research into electoral systems or in political journalism should make a daily obeisance to Chris Cook and urge the gods to make him immortal. For over thirty years he has assiduously produced a stream of remarkably reliable statistical volumes on a commendably wide area of national and international topics, all of which have shortened considerably the amount of time each of us would otherwise need to spend digging out crucial facts. This current volume is but the latest in along line of such tomes'. - Michael Meadowcroft
