Jason Button says
Nice review of Scott’s NTT. I stumbled across this title the other day as I was browsing the Christian Focus website. Your overview is just what I wanted to know about this book.
Also, the first disadvantage you mentioned is a major problem I have with this publisher. I am reading through a CFP book right now and the bibliography is atrocious. The same is the case with another CFP book I reviewed about a year ago. The book I am currently reading cites Owen’s ‘Death of Death’ as ‘Death of Death and the Death of Christ’ (substituting ‘and’ for ‘in’) both in the text and in the bibliography. This is embarrassing! Other punctuation and formatting problems abound. It’s a terrible shame because CFP publishes books by some very respectable authors. It appears that they have a serious editorial or proofreading epidemic.
