Anyone entering politics must confront profound questions to make sense of their individual role, and the institutional role of Parliament itself, in the face of public hostility and indifference. Through a candid conversation between Frances D'Souza and Tessa Jowell, The Power of Politicians gives fascinating insights into the workings of Parliament and Jowell's interior life: how she protected herself against moral corruption, what inspired her and what troubled her. The result is a masterclass in how to be a good politician." -- Taken from back cover.
