A teacher at McGill University in Canada, at Harvard, and the London School of Economics, he became one of the principal architects of the British Labour party, which he served as idea man for years, though he never held public office. "This is a very able book about a very able man - one of the most remarkable, in sheer grey matter, of his generation...Martin's book is a searching and acute piece of analysis , and it is much more than an affectionate memoir.
