Man and Society Reviews

Review of Man & Society volumes I, II and III: '...as a critical examination of political thought - which is what Plamenatz had always intended the work to be (and not just a descriptive history of...) the value of the work has been enhanced...As a teacher of Political Theory I have used his work extensively - constantly recommending certain chapters to my pupils for diligent study and ever grateful to his scholarship which has enabled my own understanding to be more enlightened.' Clive P Thomas, Teaching Politics
