London Review of Books: Interesting articles

A great edition of London Review of Books this week.

• Neal Ascherson’s report on the German SDP is a fascinating, especially in the light of our recent breakfast discussion
• Patrick Cockburn provides a clear line on Syria through media confusion on Assad’s strength.
• David Runciman reviews Charles Moore’s Authorised biography of Margret Thatcher.

All open to read on their website. Food for thought.
