One of the great cornerstones in the history of Christian philosophy, The City of God provides an insightful interpretation of the development of modern Western society and the origin of most Western thought. Contrasting earthly and heavenly cities--representing the omnipresent struggle between good and evil--Augustine explores human history in its relation to all eternity. In Thomas Merton's words, "The City of God is the autobiography of the Church written by the most Catholic of her great saints."

Needed this for a law class and it worked great
Format: Spiral-bound, Format: Spiral-bound
Love the binding on the side to make it easier to read/access pages. Everything in this book was laid out well and I was able to use it for several semesters of school. It matched up with the professors version at the time and I had no issues.

1rst time transaction with more to come in the future!
Format: Spiral-bound
Absolutely saved my a** in a class (Legal Research) where the book was noted in a syllabus but not listed in the class registration as "required materials". Realized the need after starting an assignment 4 weeks into the semester. The instructor was no help asking if I had noted her announcement in the 3rd week. Thank you very much for meeting your written commitments especially the time of delivery. Teh price was very reasonable considering the pricing from suppliers such as Pearson or Magraw-Hill. (Prices through suppliers were nearly double and that included nearly triple on the shipping) Feel free to edit as needed for vendor relationships! LOL

I Hate This Book, BUT You HAVE to Purchase It....Unfortunately
Format: Spiral-bound
It's not that I really hate this book, I more hate the organizations that produces this book. First, I'm assuming this has not been done, but the editors of all the "prestigious" law reviews who write and edit this book need to get their act together and hire a professional company to rework the appendix and table of contents to be more helpful! The information is surely in the book, but it's unnecessarily overly difficult to find the information you're looking for. The Blue Book(tm) indeed has a monopoly on the legal citation market, which is why you MUST purchase it (unless you'd prefer to look like a moron when you submit your documents to the court only to have them sent back because nothing was cited properly...you don't want to be known as "that attorney"). Ok, I'm amending my complaint/review. The book is not too bad once you spend around 100 hours with it. After that, you'll get the hang of it and the book is not that bad. Although, I still stand behind my last review recommending that the editors provide a better table of contents and index.
