Signed to the title page by Richard Cockett (he has also ringed the dedication to his parents suggesting this was their copy).
Richard Cockett’s Thinking the Unthinkable: Think-Tanks and the Economic Counter-Revolution, 1931–1983 provides a detailed historical account of how a set of fringe economic ideas transformed from being considered "unthinkable" in the post-war era to becoming the dominant political orthodoxy of the 1980s. The book is an essential study of the intellectual architecture behind Thatcherism and neoliberalism in Britain.
Condition
A good solid copy, there is some tanning and light foxing to the page edges but otherwise this remains in strong readable condition.
