Readers who are interested in an easy-to-read, brief summary of Tillich's thought and don't wish to tackle his 3-volume Systematic Theology will find this series of lectures helpful. You may wish to complement this with Tillich's Dynamics of Faith to get a sense of Tillich's basic ideas.

This book has great historical information and facts. If I had to do a report on Italy, this is a book that I would want to use for the report. This is a good book for students and teachers alike.

Yet Another great book by doug white. Also another great addition to the Jake Winters series.

I saw this show at LACMA and wanted this catalog but it was way too expensive for me - especially for a softbound. The numbers show helped me understand Johns' wonderfully logical, creative, individualistic, lovingly obsessive world. While the printed photos are miles away from the flesh of the encaustic and layered torn papers, it keeps his inspirational pieces close at hand. Yes, it is a must for you.

YOu will not want to miss the Apple Valley Mysteries. I own every one, and I absolutely love them and am going to buy all of them for my friend's birthday. they aren't just for little kids, My Mom even likes them and I'm 14. In this book Jeanmarie and her friends get tangled up with the FBI in a very interresting mystery. THe thing I really like about the books is that there is always something to learn from the story. THe author does such a very good job explaining and discribing things that I can't put them down untill I'm finished. The books are set during World War II which just helps make them more interresting. I've read them all at least 3 times amd they never get old ! If you have never read them YOu HAVE TO READ THESE BOOKS! They are a must for your collection. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. I wish the author would write more.

I love this Book!!! Personally this is my favorite book out of all of the Apple Valley mysteries. Jeanmarie is a spunky girl who is always ready to solve a mystery. Jeanmarie and all of the kids from the orphanage go to the circus. It's hot and all of a sudden the big circus tent is on fire. Jeanmarie and Pearl (her best friend) aren't sitting with the rest of the orphanage children. They must escape from the fire! How will they make it out in time? Well, the two end up in an old hospital. Jeanmarie has her appendix taken out and Pearl is left blind! The doctor says that Pearl may not be blind for long, but it seems hopeless. In this book the two girls along with their friend Wilfred make friends with a clown and a princess. They also find an old chapel and a thief in the hospital's basement. Jeanmarie makes friends with quite a few interesting people. The main question is will Pearl ever see again? And will she have to leave the orphanage to go live in a home for the blind? How will Jeanmarie live without her friend? Will it be Matron's fault that Pearl will have to leave Apple Valley forever? This is a book you will not want to miss. I enjoy every minute of this book and just finished reading it for the 5th time this morning! Hope you like it just as much!

Well, my grandfather wrote this book a year before he passed away and I think it is amazingly good. I was 16 when he published it. I am not sure that anyone will ever read this but there is a chance. My grandfather was a wonderful man, a brilliant historian, and an incredible intellect. I would recommend this book to anyone.

This is an extraordinary achievement: for something that's so well and comprehensively researched it manages to be a remarkably compelling and exhilarating read. If you've read the Da Vinci Code (or haven't) you should consider upgrading to The Jesus Inquest. This guy seems to have covered all the angles surrounding the death and resurrection of the Nazarene - the documentary sources, the medical causes of death, ancient Jewish burial practices, the Turin shroud; and also the various hypotheses about what happened to the body.... and there are PICTURES too. He's obviously done a lot of leg-work around the Middle East to research this. The format of the two barristers, X and Y, arguing their case in court and slagging each other off in their deliciously ungentlemanly way works really well. A great read for people tired of the usual one-sided pro- or anti-Christian fare and who want to get a serious handle on what might actually have happened 2000 years ago, without falling asleep at the wheel. Pugnacious, provocative.... and extremely informative. NICE ONE.
