My copy, posted 09/29/07, is hardback. According to the cover page, the paperback books have ISBN 0696015625, whereas the hardback end in "09" rather than "25." So I think the description on this page is wrong for the ISBN number.


Food for Life: The Cancer Prevention Cookbook
Review Date: 9/29/2007


I think there is a mistake somehow about who wrote this. The book says "Richard Bohannon, M.D.
Past President, American Cancer Society, California Division
Terri Pischoff and Kathy Pakosh"
There is no "Terri P. Wuerthner" anywhere that I see. And a quick Google search of ISBN 9780809228454 repeatedly shows Bohannon, not Wuerthner.

"In the first chapter it appeared as if Beeke might take us down a moralistic road, but he soon turns from this and goes in a gospel-driven direction. In fact, there are a multitude of books out there of Christain living. Most books on sanctification (Christian living, holiness, prayer, etc.) are written very poorly, often promoting questionable if not unbiblical theology. However, we consider Joel Beeke one of the best writers on the subject and hope this ends up in the hands many, especially those who wish to develop true Christian piety and forsake worldliness. A warmhearted recommendation."--Monerigsm Books


The Path of True Godliness (Classics of Reformed Spirituality)
Review Date: 9/14/2007


"I am delighted that the Dutch Reformed Teranslation Society is at last making this material available in the English language. It is a landmark feature of our Reformed heritage, and it is rich food for the soul in this or any other age."
- J.I. Packer

"..a gold mine of spiritual wisdom"
- Richard J Mouw

"Many will surely welcome this new access to the Dutch authors whose strong writings put faith and certainty into generations of their fellow countrymen. By their closeness to Scripture and their concern for heart and head (heat and light), they remain of enduring value."
- Iain H Murray

"..a gold mine of spiritual wisdom"
- Richard J Mouw

"Intensely practical from the beginning to end. Focus upon the attitudes of heart and behavior of life that ought to adorn the doctrines of the gospel. Exhortations are drawn from Scripture. Lot's to glean from this gem. The are some minor areas of of theological inconsistency, but overall it is a helpful and effective book exhorting God's people to live pious and godly lives"--Monergism Books

"RUSSIA AND ITS CRISIS

"Paul Miliukov's _Russia and Its Crisis_ was one of the most extraordinary and prescient books ever to have emerged from pre-revolutionary Russia. Based upon a series of lectures presented at the University of Chicago and Boston's Lowell Institute in 1903 and 1904, _Russia and Its Crisis_ laid out the case for the development of a politically _liberal_ Russia at precisely the moment that the cold autocratic order was beginning to crumble."

My copy (posted 09/29/07) is a very firm PAPERBACK book!
