About the author

Harold Fox

22 books2 followers
Harold Fox, who also published as H.S.A. Fox, had retired from the University of Leicester, where he had held a personal chair in the Centre for English Local History, only a month before his death and was finalising his magnum opus on medieval transhumance on Dartmoor at that time. Dartmoor's Alluring Uplands: Transhumance and Pastoral Management in the Middle Ages was eventually published in 2012 after his manuscripts were editted by Christopher Dyer and Matthew Tompkins.

He took a degree in historical geography at University College London, and moved to the University of Cambridge, along with his thesis supervisor, H.C. Darby. On completing his thesis he taught geography for a few years at Cambridge, and spent a year at Queen’s University Belfast, before joining the Department (now Centre) of English Local History at the University of Leicester in 1976. He flourished there, gaining much praise for his teaching, and was promoted to a personal chair in 2003. Much of his research was on the south west, especially his beloved Devon.

In his thesis and subsequent articles he revised the orthodoxies about the region’s field systems, and showed that there had been extensive enclosure of open fields in the later middle ages. He applied his deep understanding of field systems, and in particular the balance that they struck between arable and pastoral farming, to the fields of the Midlands, and contributed a major essay on the ‘Origins of the Midland System’ to Trevor Rowley’s book published in 1981. He also demolished the theory that there was a wholesale movement from two-field to three-field systems in the period of population pressure in the thirteenth century.

His insights into fields were used in an important essay on landscape history published in 1989, in which he characterised the special features of the wold landscapes of eastern England. One of his most original contributions to settlement and landscape history, was the discovery that the fishing villages on the south coast of Devon only became permanent settlements after about 1400. At the time of his death he had completed the text of a book on Dartmoor, which developed themes of transhumance and seasonal settlements.

He lectured in style, both to Leicester students and at conferences. He was a good citizen in the academic world, serving as Reviews Editor of the Journal of Historical Geography, and was an active president of three societies. He was kind and courteous in an old-fashioned way, and a witty conversationalist.

It was a mark of the esteem in which he was held that no less than five conferences were organised in his memory in 2008, three in Devon and two in Leicester. From these various speakers were invited to contribute to a memorial volume, Life in Medieval Landscapes: People and Places in the Middle Ages .

Good for someone who doesn't understand manipulative personalities.

Decent and short read.

But like mentioned in the title,
Good for someone who doesn't understand or doesn't get the dynamics and the seriousness of it with regards to manipulative personalities....

I don't agree on the authors view of persuasion but in a way do agree about intent being the deciding factor.


Don't think that anyone who knows about personality types or has had to go through the hard and unfortunate process of experiencing and delving into the knowledge sought when realised that they are dealing with one will find anything starkly uncommon in this book.

It could have had a section on what to do or how to deal with manipulation.

This book is a fascinating read for anyone who is interested in psychology, personality disorders and people in general. It looks at the many forms of manipulation and reading it you cannot help but recognise traits from people you may know, or indeed yourself. However when these traits are used to exert influence on others, this is when it becomes manipulation. This book gives a breakdown of numerous types of personality disorders and how to recognise when you are being manipulated by others. It also talks about how you can ethically use persuasion techniques to improve how people respond to you.

This was a gifted copy in exchange for an honest review.
