A new edition of the classic study of the religious changes that transformed England in the sixteenth century.Henry VIII officially brought the Protestant Reformation to England in the 1530s when he severed the English Church from the Papacy. But the seeds of the movement; according to A.G.. Dickens; were planted much earlier. The English Reformation; first published in 1964; follows the movement from its late medieval origins through the settlement of Elizabeth I in 1559 and the rise of Puritanism.

Specific incidents which illustrate the use of hate spin; many of which are intended to agitate a minority are cited. Reviews of laws impacting hate speech and discrimination in the three exemplar democracies are noted. The last two chapters give consideration to the methods that can be used in a democracy to limit the effectiveness of hate spin. Overall a very cogent and thorough review.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
