“Let us not pretend that we want a planet without any censorship”, writes Jakub Maciejewski in an introduction to his latest book. This intriguing beginning betrays the author's intention to look into censorship in an in-depth and exhausting way.
It is not common to know that the issue of censorship already existed in ancient times, until which it reaches out in its book Jakub Maciejewski. The mediate Ages and the Renaissance, in turn, are times erstwhile certain myths are associated – what? We will besides read about this in the book of this esteemed young generation historian, who uses the pen efficiently.

What about the Book Index of Forbidden and Church censorship? On what were they based and were they harmful to the improvement of science? As the author of the "Historia censorship" proves, many myths besides grew around these issues, and real censorship problems began erstwhile secular states began to introduce it!
