Here's what some of the critics have said:

  • Essential reading

  • Superbly written and illustrated

  • The book is the final word on the history, development and current state of the University of London's academic dress

  • Graduates of the University will be fascinated by this book

  • Invaluable guide, superbly illustrated

  • This slim volume belies a wealth of scholarship and is an excellent introduction to a fascinating subject

  • Admirably lucid

  • A lively history of London University academical dress, there is a comprehensive section showing the dress for every degree at the University

  • At every stage the book is handsomely illustrated - details of old engravings, excellent photographs and sophisticated computer-generated images help bring the book alive

  • More wide-ranging than its title suggests. No particular link with the university itself is required to enjoy it

  • Excellently illustrated and up-to-date
