4.0 out of 5 stars
Good, basic overview.,
This review is from: History of Canon Law (Louvain Theological & Pastoral Monographs) (Paperback)
The list of modern histories of canon law is very short, especially in English; fortunately, this text swells that number. This work assumes the reader has little knowledge of canonical sources and spends, therefore, a bit more time explaining basic concepts than do some other studies. The matieral is reliable however, and it certainly merits a reading by those looking material on the history of canon law.

A Handy and Concise HIstory of Canon Law and its Development,
By Sacerdos Atque Discipulus (Rome, Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: History of Canon Law (Louvain Theological & Pastoral Monographs) (Paperback)
I was very happy with this book. It is a straight-forward brief survey of the history of ecclesiastical and canon law. Some of it is technical but as another reviewer pointed out, there is not much on the subject available in English. There is also a great deal of valuable bibliographical information in this book that would be especially helpful for anyone interested in the canonical or historical areas of the Catholic Church.
