This book is very well thought out. The author tries to give an argument about God. The title is a little misleading because of what he addresses. His argument is basically this: If God is omnibenevolent, omnipotent, and all loving, why do black people suffer? I don't want to spoil this book, but if you are reading this review (no matter what race you are), you really should spend the money on this book. It is worth it, I assure you.

The author has presented an extremely well structured introduction to the field of sol-gel technology - an otherwise poorly documented area of physical chemistry. The approach has been one of considering the applications of sol-gel rather than the chemistry behind it, although the early chapters do provide sufficient information for a non-chemist. The real forte of this book is its readability. The writing style is easy enough to make it comfortable bed-time reading (unusual for physical chemistry texts :) ). On the downside, the illustrations are poor, though well intentioned. And the author fails to convey the full range of current applications for the technology. Biochemical aspects are well-covered and I found myself wishing that other areas were receiving the same treatment. However, this does not detract from the fact that the book is an excellent read.

I would recommend this book to some students of veterinary science and veterinary pathology, but it is hard to keep pace with such a rapidly changing field - and in some sections, this book hasn't even tried. Glaring errors and out of date references are present in some sections (e.g. the section on Swine Influenza does not mention the zoonotic potential of the virus or its presence in avian species). Other sections contain information and figures which are hard to obtain elsewhere. Use this book - but with caution.

I would like to recommend this book to any vet students who wish to buy this book. This book may be a little heavy to carry around but the it's good as a back-up reference book. The explanation on the topic of inflammation and neoplasia is good and to the point. On inflammation, it's divided to the groups of inflammation and and in the topic of neoplasia differentiates benign and malignant tumours very detail. I like this this.
