I have a feeling this would be a good book, but I haven't been able to find a copy yet whose pages are in order. I only managed to make it through the first thirty pages or so flipping around the book to find each page number in order before giving up. I still recommend it as an introduction to the bible based on other recommendations given to me.... just make sure you handle your copy before buying it so you can make sure the pages are in order. (And no, the bookstore wouldn't give me a refund, and all their copies were like mine with the pages out of order, so I couldn't just exchange them.) ( )
