- This 329-page extended historical monograph is the result of several years of research. It offers a complex, multifaceted analysis of legal development in a period that has traditionally been neglected. Many of the primary sources on which it is based have never been analysed, such as the papers of the Law Revision Committee (held at the National Archives). The book does not rely on traditional legal categories, instead taking a more creative and thematic approach, which brings out connections (and inconsistencies) in the law’s attitudes to fundamental questions such as the position of women and the role of the press.
