Dry but informative. I think Peters gives too short a shrift to the theory that the practice of magic boomed in the 12th and 13th century in a futile effort to find another source of supernatural power outside the Church, but he does at least touch on it, and the appendix on sources is positively invaluable for anyone who wants to get into the study of magic in the Middle Ages.
