Mr Lewis turns his attention to the civil servants, scientists, analysts, and administrators who quietly keep society running. He pulls back the curtain on the individuals who devote their lives to the public good. These are the people who inspect our food, monitor disease outbreaks, oversee air traffic, and ensure clean water flows to millions. The author humanises government in a way that feels both timely and necessary.

Mr Lewis doesn’t merely compile facts or summarise agencies; he tells the stories of the people delivering services. Whether profiling a scientist racing to contain an emerging virus or a meteorologist decoding the next big storm, each chapter reads like a mini-thriller. There’s a clear message here: government isn’t some faceless, bureaucratic behemoth, it is made up of real people, with real stakes.

The author turns what should be complex policy discussions into digestible, even entertaining, snippets. .
Who Is Government? serves as a powerful reminder of why good governance matters, and who pays the price when it fails.
