Judges & method : new approaches in biblical studies by Gale A. Yee

The articles vary a lot in the amount they actually say about Judges, and when they do talk about Judges, they use different stories to make their points. This makes comparing the various methods rather difficult. I think a concluding chapter to pull the book together would ahve been useful.

Having said that, I do think I learned a fair amount, both about Judges and about methods of studying the Bible.
