“. . . Canon law is often seen as a rather arcane business, but the contributors to this readable and beautifully-produced collection treat it as an aspect of the Church living in the real world . . . This fine tribute would be of interest to a wider readership than that of canon-law specialists.” –Journal of Ecclesiastical History

“It is a useful introduction to the Anglican tradition for those of other traditions who are ignorant of it . . . It is a fine Festschrift and the editors and contributors are to be congratulated on its production.” –Irish Theological Quarterly

“. . .an excellent and scholarly volume . . .” –Church Times

“The range and quality of these writings confirm that there is taking place a real renaissance in the study of the law of the Church of England. In our opinion, this can and ought to interest Catholic canonists.” –Monitor Ecclesiasticus

“. . .an impressive book which this reviewer enjoyed immensely . . .” –Cambridge Law Journal
