註釋

This is a clear and lively account of an endlessly interesting period of English history. It was outstandingly a decade of legal reforms, of lawmaking of a new order: the first Parliamentary Reform Act was passed, the Poor Law was revised, local government in the towns was reformed, slavery was abolished, the established Church was reshaped and the first steps were taken towards publicly financed primary education. This book deals with the movement of opinion behind these reforms-- Benthamite "Philosophical Radicalism," Hodgskin and the Pre-Marxian Socialists, the Tory Radicals of the north and the Evangelical philanthropists. -- Provided by publisher.
