Phillip Pullman’s “The Golden Compass”
Several people have expressed concern to me about the upcoming film “The Golden Compass.” A couple of years ago IV Press published a book that may be of interest: “Dark Matter: Shedding Light on Philip Pullman’s Trilogy, His Dark Materials.”


Reformed Baptist Academic Press
Reformed Baptist Academic Press has just launched a new web site and is introducing two new books.


How to Mark a Book
“Thoughts on the Way” has just published Mortimer J. Adler’s helpful article on how to mark a book. A golden quote: “I contend, quite bluntly, that marking up a book is not an act of mutilation but of love.”
