Britain's departure from the European Union is riddled with myth and misinformation - yet the risks are very real.
Brexit could diminish the UK's power, throw its legal system into turmoil, and lower the standard of living of 65m citizens.
In this revised edition of his bestselling paperback, Ian Dunt explains why leaving the world's largest trading bloc will make Britain poorer, leave key industries like finance and pharma struggling to operate, and could even lead to the break up of the UK.
Based on extensive interviews with trade and legal experts, Brexit: What the Hell Happens Now? is a searching exploration of Brexit, shorn of the wishful thinking of its supporters in the British media and Parliament.

Reviews
Admirably brief and necessarily brutal... Whatever your position during the referendum, you ought to read Dunt because he is willing to face uncomfortable facts. Highly recommended.

Compact and easily digestible. I'd encourage anyone who is confused, fascinated or frustrated by Brexit to read this book - you'll be far wiser by the end of it.
- Caroline Lucas, Co-Leader, Green Party
I would strongly recommend Ian Dunt's excellent guide. Dunt has taken the extraordinary step of asking a set of experts what they think. I learnt a lot.
