Heavy duty thought for the well-read amateur
If you (like me) are a well-read amateur in the field of philosophy and religion, you will get a lot of mileage out of this book. The early chapters and the last one or two chapters, in particular, explained some difficult theological and philosophical concepts without (I think) over-simplification. The author's great sense of humor really keeps you going--the titles of the chapters themselves ...

Continued Good Reading.
I can't say much in this review of Book 2 of the Starfleet Corps of Engineers that I didn't already say in my review of Book 1. That is, it's great! Well-written, believable, and very entertaining, with nods to continuity throughout. If you're not reading these, or the DS9 re-launch, then you're missing out on some great stuff. An added bonus in the back of this publication is the S.C.E. ...

The concept that they shoulda used for the new tv series!
I picked up _Have Tech, Will Travel_ and couldn't put it down. I found myself thinking "this is what Enterprise should be!" What put me off originally besides the techy sounding title was the fact that it was compiled into novellettes, billed as short stories by different writers. I really don't like short stories because, you know, they just get interesting and then they end. But the way it's ...

An excellent and thought-provoking book
This excellently-written and very readable book has 200 pages dealing with this most modern of issues - is religion dangerous? Keith Ward explores how we define religion and the ways in which religions and groups can be seen to be `dangerous' where their intent might be quite the opposite. I liked the way that he drew examples from all aspects of life and history - Christianity, Islam, Nazi ...

A Must Read
Ward has provided a fair and balanced assesment of current issues in the science/Faith controvesy. This work is scholarly, temperate and best of all HONEST with the data. Because the truth of the matter is that neither atheism nor theism has in its posession a smoking gun. And this is exactly what we would expect if indeed God intention with regard to create was to create an environment for ...

A classic book
I read this book for the first time almost 25 years ago. It quickly became one of my favorites and I started collecting the others in the series. I was very suprised to open a box of books last year and find that I still had all of the originals! This book is the classic, timeless story of the relationship between a lonely boy and the wild stallion he comes to love. I would recommend it for ...

Significant contribution
This is an important book and obligatory reading for all either interested in homeland security or professionally involved with it. It is also a facinating, and, for most readers, little known history of the US, the government, the major catastrophes that affected this country, and the recovery. While recommended for all as a simply very good read, the book ought to become a standard text used ...

Rethinking Christianity
Keith Ward's book Re-thinking Christianity provides a useful compliment to his earlier book What the Bible Really Teaches. The former book discusses the Bible and shows how its teachings are misconstrued by fundamentalists, and how fundamentalist claims to take the Bible literally are simply false. This more recent book begins with the New Testament documents, approached in a historical-critical ...

An orthodox liberal
Anglican philosopher-theologian Keith Ward, recently retired professor of divinity at Oxford, has published a book called What the Bible Really Teaches (about Crucifixion, Resurrection, Salvation, the Second Coming, and Eternal Life) that is a charitable but firm rebuke to fundamentalist readings of the Bible. Ward considers himself a "born-again" Christian, but says that fundamentalist ...

The best one volume introduction to Christianity.
Professor Ward of Oxford University has done a remarkable job of showing the variety of Christian beliefs in relation to its main doctrines such as incarnation, salvation etc. in a very clear, objective and readable way. I highly recommend it as possibly the best guide to the subject.
