Combining newspaper excerpts, official documents, academic analysis and the recollections of participants, it examines: * the various ways in which policy originates and is shaped within Whitehall * different modes of parliamentary control, the problems of implementation and policy review * civil servants' part in developing policy * ministers' relations with their departments and their colleagues * the role of the prime minister and cabinet * the impact of the European Union
