It is impossible to understand how the medieval church functioned — and in turn influenced and controlled the lay world within its care — without understanding the development, character and impact of `canon law’, its own distinctive law code. However important, this can seem a daunting subject to non-specialists.

James Brundage’s marvellously fluent and accessible book is the perfect answer: it will be warmly welcomed by medievalists and students of ecclesiastical and legal history.
