I bought this book because it was one of 12 volumes in a series. I've found it to be not only the best of the series, but one of the best books I've ever read. Dr. Mullins interprets the Christian faith via the belief that every soul is competant to relate to God without mediation through other humans or human institutions. From this conviction he draws six truths (axioms) of the faith. The axioms deal with one's relationship with God, other Christians, and society. The language is written on a common level (for 1908), but is rich and carefully expressed. In addition to the 12 chapters of the title there is an excellant selection of additional short writings by Dr. Mullins. This book has helped me to gain a new perspective of my beliefs and has strengthened my faith. My only complaint is that it lacks chapters 13-17, which I found in an original 1908 copy.

The 1985 movie was great, but Brewster's methods are far more diverse and humorous in the book. Notable highlights:

-Brewster befriends a pair of muggers by insisting they steal everything, even the $300 they overlooked in his right pocket.

-He hosts a luxury cruise for 50 to Europe, and the guests stage a mutiny to curb Brewster's inexplicable generosity.

-An Arab sheik tries to steal Brewster's fiance in Egypt, but is shot in the head while absconding.

A possible detractor: the book has far more dramatic content than the movie. This is not simply a comedic vehicle. It is thoroughly absorbing, nevertheless.

This book surprised me. It was nothing like what I expected it to be. It was a good book and I enjoyed reading it wich was not something i expected to be able to say. The stories were interesting and intreaging. Goerge Sand is nothing less then a literary genuis, her stories reminded me of when I was younger. In her Story "What Flowers Say" I could definitly identify with the young girl since when I was that age I too wondered what the flowers talked about when I wasn't there. I would recomend this book to people of all ages it is simply a great book, writen by a truly awesome writer.

That is the theme of this terrific book which points out that sales of top-end items (jewelry, cars, real estate, etc.) are ultimately INTERPERSONAL transactions -- and that the seller must be able to "read" the personality of the prospective buyer in order to close the sale. The author uses the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator as the basis for her personality profiling; but the book is most valuable to any salesperson, even if you're an MBTI rookie.

The culturgrams are a great reference for teachers, students, travelers, and researchers for quick information on history, geography, cultural, and other important information for each country listed. The information is accurate and as up-to-date as possible.

This is an excellent Earth Science text book. It covers a wide variety of topics such as astronomy, geology, and meteorology. The activities manual designed to be used with this text has great ideas and investigations that appeal to Junior High School students.This book is well thought out and written from the Creationist's point of view.

Excellent material to be used with our churches' youth. Learn how to use positively bands like Metallica, Smashing Pumpkins, Madonna, Van Halen, Poison, Crash Test Dummies, and others, in order to spread God's message of justice, love, equality and true Christian life with meaning.

This book is a wonderful collection of poems for your daughter as she travels through life. I love mine and many friends have bought after seeing my copy.

This book is the best book I have read in a long time.His family life from childhood to his time as our nations first President.If there are things you never knew about George Washington you will find them in this book.

For anyone who like me wants to trace their German roots in Chile, this book provides wonderful information from a very reliable source--a former U.S. embassador to Chile.
Ussually there tends to be a misconception that every German from South America had some secret and "evil" link to the Nazis, but George F.W. Young does an incredible job in separating the German people who came before the turn of the century and those who came with the purpose of expanding Hitler's war markets.
The book is so matter-of-fact that it provides a pleasant and soothing feeling to any well-intended American in the pursuit of inter-american friendship and honor.
