The 193 illustrations are mostly in colour, and are supplemented by a considerable number of very useful references to on-line image databases. There is an introduction by the editors which orients the reader both to the book and to stained glass studies more generally, and a general index is provided. This book thus offers a great deal and caters to many different interests. It serves both the scholar and the student, with clear, authoritative contributions, each with an up-to-date bibliography, that will interest a wide variety of readers, including not just art historians but anyone interested in the Middle Ages, or in medievalism. It can certainly be read through cover to cover, but the contributions are independent from one another, facilitating a wide variety of selective reading strategies. This is a very useful book.'
