Revue de presse

Pupils setting out on the new AS or A2 will find (Michael Wilcockson's) book not merely a concise introduction but an informative dossier full of neatly presented detail - some in tabular form - that will deepen and increase their understanding of highly complex subjects, often floating on shifting sands of public policy. He presents theoretical material alongside observations from major thinkers and the utterances of the major religious institutions, especially those in the Christian West. Put together they will enable pupils to argue with an insight that couples the traditional with the contemporary. (Dr K M Wolfe, Godolphin & Latymer School 2000-04-01)
