Focusing on the development of public relations bureaus and information services in Whitehall, Muriel Grant shows how during the inter-war period publicity came to be regarded as a legitimate and necessary task of democratic government. Although government departments pursued propaganda activities with different motives and divergent perspectives, they adopted a similar approach to both the tool and their audiences. Grant explores a variety of different issues and campaigns, including the Post Office's attempts to make the public "telephone conscious," the Ministry of Health's sexual education efforts, and the multi-departmental and protracted "Drink More Milk" campaign. The book offers valuable insights into the nature of propaganda and its management, and contributes to our understanding of the changing role of the state in modern British society.
