Review # 1 was written on 2010-02-27 00:00:00 Richard Cesaroni An 18th century Anglican work on Christian living. The author challenges the Christian to put God first and to avoid vain amusements. Law was said to be the prophet to the idle rich, and he certainly fulfills that vocation well. I thought he was sometimes overly harsh on innocent diversions, such as music, but his challenge to put God first in all things hits the mark. I was particularly impressed by his positive assessment of the more religious pagans (Plato, Socrates, etc.).

Review # 2 was written on 2008-07-09 00:00:00 Steven Meier Serious study will take more than 8 days. A confusing introduction to an obscure process.
