Baker Books, 2000
I read so many books...
+ Marvelous
I read so many books on Judaic-Christian relations and I was starting to question Jesus' messiahship; I read this book and it renewed my faith. I'm excited to read the others.

Free Press, 2006
Well written - read it for yourself
+ Absolutely fascinating! + Darwin's fantasy.
Very well written book. Despite the impression that some reviews give, the book is quite logical in its approach.

The Twilight of American Culture 98 reviews Morris Berman
W. W. Norton & Company, 2001
Really cannot be denied
+ By the skin of our teeth? + what about the cover?
There is nothing I can add save to say the deed is done: America has entered terminal decline. Four short decades of unhinged liberalism and mass immigration (the latter would have done the job all by itself, btw) is all it took. To those who long sought this outcome, enjoy your victory. To ...

NavPress Publishing Group, 2001
Amazing Read!
+ All aspiring scientists and engineers should read this book. + Hugh Ross Does God's Work
This book is nothing less than phenomenal.

Fortunately, I saw my way out of that darkness and into the rationale of theistic evolution ...
