Omschrijving
A provocative and entertaining exploration of the country that Britons love to hate by one of our most respected journalists.
Excellent and provocative... a passionate, timely book.
A fine new book... One of the best English-language introductions in recent years to modern Germany and its politics: thoughtful, deeply reported and impeccably even-handed.
A rich guide to modern Germany... For the British readers this book is directed at, the implied contrasts are startling. German conservatism produced Angela Merkel, easily the most respected democratic leader in the world, while the English variety produced Boris Johnson.
Highly readable and well-informed... [Kampfner] mixes historical sweep with vivid reporting to celebrate Germany's strengths and achievements.
A revelation of a book... with insights based on painstaking research and evidence gleaned from months crisscrossing the country... Kampfner's analysis is simply peerless.
A nuanced but compelling account... Kampfner marshals a convincing argument that other countries would be foolish to ignore Germany's emotional maturity and solidity.
Authoritative, timely and courageous, this is a compellingly readable book that raises profoundly important questions on history, our times and the future.
A lively, affectionate portrait... A paeon to Germany.
Passionate yet carefully argued, Why The Germans Do It Better is a must-read.
A well-argued case for learning from our German cousins.
Smart, provocative and entertaining, this is a timely and enthralling love letter to our much misunderstood near neighbour.
A forensic and highly readable account of Germany's ability to get things right. Kampfner's clear and unanswerable argument should be compulsory reading for every politician, civil servant and commentator in Britain.
We need a great book on Germany as the Merkel era ends: this is that book. It confronts the country's history, and charts with authority and affection its modern course with lessons for us all.
Kampfner's admiration of what post-war Germany has achieved doesn't blind him to her imperfections. Why the Germans Do It Better abounds with sharp analysis and telling anecdotes. A lively, very readable introduction to a country we ought to understand a lot better than we do.
One of Britain's most distinguished political writers.
Kampfner roams widely in Germany and has a reporter's ear for the telling anecdote. He knows his history too.
There is plenty of good material here and the timing is impeccable.
A fascinating, affectionate and deeply researched portrait of Germany in the modern era -- Kampfner vividly brings Germany's turbulent history to life, and explains its profound influence on Europe today. Why The Germans Do It Better is essential for all who want to understand what Britain should do post-Brexit.
Germany's success in tackling the great pandemic of 2020 has surprised many. John Kampfner shows why it should not have done so. This is a compelling account of how, in two generations, a country adopted the principles of liberal democracy, then mastered them, and now has more to teach us than we might wish to admit
