In civil law; Legislative History is extremely important and often cited in legal argument. This book gives Canon Law a Legislative History. Canon Law did not evolve in haste; more like tortoise speed. But that makes the milestones even bigger. This book assembles them all. Today; in light of the sexual abuse scandals; there is much discussion over whether the legal system of Canon Law is really a legal system; and; if it is; will it survive the scandal. This book has got to be at the base of any such discussion. This history shows the identity of Canon Law and where it has been. This history will help lead it into the future. All of this is done for the first time in English. It takes every solid resource available in English and hands them all to Canon Lawyers on one platter! It refers to doctoral dissertations; official interpretations; association documents; and the Canon Law Digest. The "Curator" of this "Scholarly Appratus"; Dr. Edward N. Peters; is both a canon and civil lawyer. The best lawyers are the ones who love the law. In this work; it is evident that Dr. Peters loves both systems of laws. This work is a crowning achievement for him and for the Canon Law of the Catholic Church.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Useful and attractive workBy PKThis work; the only complete English language translation of the 1917 Code; is excellent. Meticulously footnoted with research cross-references; sturdily bound; and attractively typeset; it this book will not only prove an invaluable research tool; but should still be in excellent condition a generation from now. The section headings and other components of the text are clearly demarcated; making browsing easy. My only quibble is that the pages do not have the book and chapter headings along the top of the page as many statutory compilations do. While I have yet to delve into the text at length; I can rest assured; having seen Prof. Peters's commentary elsewhere; that the annotations in this volume will not exude the same dubious skepticism of the prominent Beal-Coriden-Green translation of the 1983 Code. All in all; this work is a sound investment.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ExcellentBy John CrowleyAn excellent reference book. Well bound with good paper. Far clearer that the "revised code".
