'Masterful' - Ian Dunt 'Fascinating' - Professor Brian Cox 'Vital' - David Miliband *** Britain's 2016 vote to leave the EU divided the nation, unleashing years of political turmoil. Today, many remain unreconciled to Brexit whilst, in a tragic irony, some of those most committed to it are angry and dissatisfied with what was delivered. In this clear-headed assessment, Chris Grey argues that this painful legacy was all but inevitable, skilfully unpacking how and why the promise of Brexit dissolved during the confusing and often dramatic events that followed the referendum. Now fully updated with an afterword covering each element of the Brexit debate since the end of the transition period in 2021, this new edition remains the essential guide to one of the most bitterly contested issues of our time.

Chris Grey was Professor of Organization Studies at Cambridge University and a fellow of Wolfson College before moving to Warwick University and then to Royal Holloway, University of London, where he is now an emeritus professor. He has held visiting professorships at Copenhagen Business School and Université Paris-Dauphine and is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. He has written extensively on Brexit, including an internationally popular and widely praised blog, and is frequently quoted in the media. He has appeared as a Brexit expert on the BBC, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Germany's ARD and elsewhere. He has been invited to give evidence to the Scottish Parliament and his writings appear on the House of Commons Library and Northern Ireland Assembly reading lists.
