I bought this book because I had read W. Andrew Hoffecker' s other book on worldviews. When I saw that this included Greeks Bearing Gifts by John Frame I was thrilled. I had used that with my Omnibus class and felt that Frame hit the nail on the head. There is much we as Christians can gain from the Greeks but some Christians have gone too far. Most of the other chapters were of the same high caliber. I am considering using this with my 11th grade Omnibus next year as a text.
a very helpful historical overview of an important subject.
