Even when Heath attacked Wilson, he ran into trouble. Addressing a Conservative rally at Wembley last week, he called Wilson's record "the Rake's Progress" and his economic forecast "hooey" and "complacent nonsense."

Horizontal mergers (between competitors) and vertical mergers (between users and suppliers) have long been severely limited by well-established antitrust law.

Just what gave him his enduring tenacity, this book cannot completely explain. To his followers, he is "Uncle Ho" when he writes burbling public letters to children: "You are rejoicing, and your Uncle Ho rejoices with you. Guess why? First, because I love you . . . '" To his political enemies, many of them dead, thanks...
