1. Abse, Leo. MARGARET, DAUGHTER OF BEATRICE. A Politician's Psycho-biography of Margaret Thatcher. London. Jonathan Cape. (1989). Cloth. 8vo. Fine dj. Fine. xi & 288pp. Abse, a Labour member of Parliament from Pontypool (Wales) 1958-1987, with training in law and in psychoanalysis, offers his opinion on Mrs Thatcher's character and on the characters of any and all who cross his path. Non-scientific but valuable insight into recent British political history. Wish we had someone like Abse working inside the U.S Congress. But alas he is one of a kind and not exportable.
