Amphoux has presented his own summary of his position in _New 
Testament Textual Research Update_ Vol. 3 (1995), 41-46.  I have 
offered a reply in the same journal, Vol. 4 (1996), 41-45, and hope to 
continue the exchange with him.  His views may also be found in the 
collection which he and I have jointly edited, _Codex Bezae.  Studies 
from the Lunel Colloquium, June 1994_ (NTTS 22), Brill, 1996, 337-54.

I also feel that the handbook is too persuasive of a particular school 
to be fair.  In addition, the section on palaeography is unchanged from 
Vaganay, and therefore very out of date.  Nevertheless, the distinctive 
character of French work is important, and Duplacy is a giant in our 
discipline.
