"Philip Woods has summarised admirably the historic problems confronting any public-facing organisation whose mission is related to the life chances of young citizens in democratic countries. He has a challenging, and often radical, view of democracy which nevertheless carries the conviction of reasoned persuasion about the ultimately attainable. At its heart is a view of human freedom and dignity which draws strength and inspiration from ideals that transcend passing political fashion." Martin Ashley, Edge Hill University
