Summary: Too embarassed to let us see in the book
Review: I looked up this book with full intent of buying a copy. There are two main reasons I will not purchase it: 1. I could not look inside the book. I guess the publishers are very ashamed of it and hope to sell it sight unseen. 2. From what I have read I don't think this author knows what is theology and what is personal opinion or speculation. It is not uncommon for Mormon bashers to take personal opinion out of the Journal of Discourses, or aother literature, and portray it as doctrine.

I don't know if this author does this or not. If the publisher were not so afraid to let us see inside, I may have known the answer and purchased the book. Of course, I may have given the book a bad review. Maybe that's why the publisher keeps it inaccesible.

Summary: A Little Obscure
Review: You may find some of these essays interesting because of the historical material (i.e., quotes from GA's and other church teachings and historical details), but, in general, the essays cover topics far too obtuse to be of interest to the general reader. However, if you are interested in 'deep theological questions,' you may find the discusssions interesting.
