This book includes both the original Latin and a new English translation of the text, a detailed introduction, including reference to the influence from Roman law and Canon law, a glossary, and an essay by Sten Ebbesen, on Anders Sunesen, Archbishop of Lund, who has been ascribed as the translator and commentator of the Latin treatise.
