Being British - Our Once and Future Selves, Paperback / softback Book

Being British - Our Once and Future Selves Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Being British: Our Once & Future Selves is a journey into British culture and identity today, outlining a welcome new story for ourselves in these times of lack of belonging.

It's a book for the liberally minded, and those who feel themselves to be post-traditional, not defined by nationality.

The book takes a thought-provoking angle, which is neither Left nor Right, but instead brings the novel lens of a developmental view.

It connects the dots between past, present and future, integrating the shadow side, and draws on many unusual examples.

This is a fresh story of what it means to be British, where the author is included in the narrative.

Without being nostalgic, it restores a sense of rootedness and helps us appreciate our British qualities, incrementally built over a millennium and a half.

It celebrates being British as elective and not based on race, and demonstrates how to have pride in our nationality in a post-traditional way.
