Edited by Donald Lewis and Alister McGrath. Apollos (IVP). xv + 280 pages. £9.99
ISBN 0 85111 450 4

This collection of articles was written to be presented to Jim Packer on the occasion of his 70th birthday. Like the contents of a box of chocolates some essays are more appealing than others, and different readers will have different tastes.

There are three sections to choose from: Systematic, Biblical and Exegetical, and Historical and Interdisciplinary. There is also a brief biography of Packer and bibliography of his works.
