Synopses & Reviews
The postwar decades have seen a revolution in moral behavior. In
Makers and Manners, Andrew Holden revisits the landmark court cases and changes to the law that have tested and defined the moral order and argues that since 1945, Britain has changed from a society where public morality and criminal law were rooted in late Victorian sensibilities, to one where the very existence of a public morality is questioned.
