This book provides a timely analysis of the ways in which ecclesiastical authority infringed upon the rights of the state and individuals in Scotland in the 16th and 17th centuries. The author was a leading figure in the English church and was sharply critical of the Calvinist movement that saw power transferred from the individual to a ruling body. In focusing on the Scottish experience under the Presbyterian model, he shows how the encroachment of the Church into civil affairs worked to suppress dissent and undermine the autonomy of the individual. This book is highly recommended to anyone interested in the history of the Reformation and the relationship between church and state in Western societies.
