Philip L. Reynolds' splendid volume restores some balance. He has assembled a superb group of scholars who presented the most important elements of law in the early Middle Ages, and had shaped medieval and early modern jurisprudence. This book is a treasure trove for the history of law.' Ken Pennington, Catholic University of America, Washington, DC 'An indispensable guide to key figures and legal concepts during the foundational age of Western, Christian, law. Essential reading for legal historians and theologians alike.'
