Publisher's description:

Peace or war; protection or free trade; capitalism or socialism - in every case ideology is entwined with personality. This book finds a fresh angle on these battles by considering eight pairs of rivals and showing how their antagonism, often evolving into outright loathing, has determined the course of political conflict over two centuries.
