God''s Jury - The Inquisition and the Making of the Modern World

Explores the idea that the Inquisition - the Catholic body that existed in Europe (and beyond) for over 700 years - is not a medieval oddity, but is intrinsically bound up with the creation of the modern world. This title shows how the creation of the Inquisition epitomized the moment when the West passed from one kind of world to another.
