Reviews

...the impulses behind [The Child in Shakespeare] have merit: to trace the development of our present concerns through documents of the past, and to articulate how the present can in turn illuminate that documented past. * Laura Kolb, Baruch College, CUNY, TLS * Scott's style is reader friendly, even poetic. Recommended. * J.S. Carducci, CHOICE *
