The infomation given is presentd well, especially for students (such as myself) studying McCarthy and the Red Scare. Neverthelss, you won't find yourself bogged down in a tide of historical phrases that leave you confused.
If there is one bad thing about this book, it would be that it is too easy to get into, and incredibly hard to put down again.

For example, he ascribes to Smith a consistent "materialism" that Smith nowhere explicitly defends. It would be more accurate and cautious to concede that in fact Smith was largely agnostic on such ontological questions. On the basis of Smith's supposed "materialism" Cropsey finds a contradiction in the very notion of "natural liberty" that is unconvincing.
The best argument that Cropsey makes is to articulate Smith's replacement of the intellectual virtues by the passions. To this cause Cropsey traces Smith's entire revaluation of the traditional teaching regarding the cardinal virtues, a revaluation in which generosity is replaced by prudence and wisdom disappears. Despite these criticisms, Cropsey gets closer to Smith's intentions than any other scholar. The book is well worth reading.

Ancient authors of the Bibble were masters in using beautiful and very complicated language such as in Revelations. This was an important step to preserve great truths for generations to come.
Now, Dr. Joseph Murphy (Ph.D, D.D., LL.D) author of some 30+ books on spirituality and New Thought has written a book that is the best guide to this book.
Dr. Murphy shows us that book of Revelations is all about creating a life of your dreams.. It has very little if any to do with historical or future events. It is not a prediction about end of days.
Book of revelations is something so great that this book will guide you to understand it better than I've heard anyone to explain it.
If you are willing to learn how to be more efficent with your prayer life, understand the greatest truths and to be successful in your life -- this book will help you. Combine it with "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind" and "How to use the laws of mind" and you will be on your way. รน
The one disappointment in Morneau's critique is his use of Jessica's poem "Leftovers," about the Multiplication of Loaves and Fishes, as an excuse to peddle the rationalistic pabulum of miracle-debunking. The twelve baskets are "merely symbols of God's extravagance and bounty." Or perhaps the miracle is that Jesus encouraged otherwise uncharitable people to turn over a new leaf and start sharing their goodies. Presumably, the Galilean crowd was "hiding fish sandwiches up their sleeves" (in Benedict Groeschel's tart phrase)!
But our disappointment in Bishop Morneau for his Jesus-as-Bob-Geldof take on the gospel is momentary; we soon redirect our attention to the charm of Jessica's poetry -- holy without being pietistic, formal without being stiff, lyrical without being sappy. It is fresh and alive. And to be fair to His Excellency the bishop, his love of poetry is contagious, and his comments for the most part apposite.
We cannot neglect to mention the splendid artistry in the collages and other pictures of Joseph Karlik, nicely enhancing the poetry of this book without overwhelming it. At times, Karlik's artistry is more inspiring than the bishop's exegesis.
