Book excerpt: Since 1985, when Jacques Delors became President of the European Commission, no politician has made a bigger impact on Western Europe. But while his successes encouraged countries outside the Community to seek membership, they also provoked a wave of anti-Brussels sentiment in the 1990s. As The Economist's Brussels correspondent, Charles Grant had unique access to Jacques Delors, his friends and enemies, and the European institutions. This is the first major biography of the man who, rising from the humblest of origins, became the architect of the new Europe. It is also a fascinating and revealing analysis of how Brussels, the house that Jacques built, really works.
