'Skjönsberg's welcome edition of the Political writings is the first modern version of Macaulay's work. It has the potential to stimulate more research on Macaulay and to make her more teachable, thereby returning her to her rightful place in the history of political thought. The book is historically rich, meticulously selected and carefully introduced to the reader. It will be a valuable tool for both new and long-time students of Macaulay. Given her extensive oeuvre, Skjönsberg's process of editorial selection is highly impressive.' Geertje Bol, Times Literary Supplement
