Jacqueline Rose is Lecturer in History at the University of St Andrews.
The book has been well planned, with thirteen substantive chapters
and a very long and valuable introduction. There is extensive
cross-referencing, and evidence of discussion among contributors at
the workshops that preceded the book. This book thus gives
political historians much to ponder. It is particularly
thought-provoking to see counsel placed, as it often is here, in a
broader context.
*Julian Goodare, History*
this is a superbly-edited collection that makes an excellent
addition to the scholarship on counsel in medieval and early modern
England and Scotland
*Aidan Norrie, The University of Warwick, Parergon*
a valuable selection of work on the interlinking thoughts on, and
mediums of, counsel that breaks several conceptual and
chronological boundaries and one that should form an indispensable
resource for those interested in the theories, practices and
problems of authority in medieval and early modern Britain.
