"Clear and concise, with a wealth of easy reference inserts to jump-start inquiry, Jesus in the Gospels and Acts is an excellent text for an introductory level course."

“An Introduction to Health Care Ethics provides a solid basic text in the field and is particularly helpful in integrating a religious perspective into bioethics in a way that invites deeper dialogue. It is very readable, but does not sacrifice intellectual depth in being accessible.”

"Dr. Stewart presents a history of the Catholic Church in a very engaging and reader friendly manner. She prompts students to think of where we are now and how we have gotten here.  I believe Cynthia Stewart has succeeded in presenting a 'popular history.'"

"The issues surrounding science and theology are multifaceted. Most books dealing with these issues provide one point of view. This book does it right! Four authors deal separately with the biblical accounts of creation, evolutionary theory, philosophical influences on evolutionary thought, and finally, a positive transcendence of the false dichotomies with an exciting conclusion: “. . . reality is a grand journey, and God is the ultimate adventurer.” It is a brilliant resolution to a difficult issue."

“The Saint Mary’s Press® College Study Bible is an outstanding tool for beginning and seasoned students of the Bible. The chapter introductions are scholarly yet accessible, and the commentaries throughout the text help to bring to contemporary readers a critical awareness of hermeneutical challenges both ancient and modern. Its insight, beauty and ease of use equip even novice readers to enter the world of the biblical text with skill and confidence.”

"An Introduction to Health Care Ethics is well focused and to the point. Easy for students to read and comprehend. Provides substantial facts and figures plus thought provoking case studies for discussion."

"This is an important book which takes a lot of intellectual risks. Challenging those perceptions of religion which are rooted in traditional patriarchal views, it brings into focus those elements of female experience and culture which are usually silenced and repressed."

"The style and tone of the writing is just right. In fact, many times the text reads like a story. The author's scholarship imbues the text but is kept somewhat in the background, and thus does not get in the way."

"Honestly, my students actuallyenjoyed the text, Introduction to Religious Studies. There are several reasons for this: the distinction it makes, early on, between the academic and devotional study of religion; the accessibility of the majority of the articles; the wide range of diverse topics it offers, as well as the meaningful questions for reflection and discussion it encourages. Non-traditional and first-year students alike gave it high ratings. I recommend it enthusiastically."

“I will be using Who Would Jesus Kill? Allman's text is very insightful and provocative—exactly what we want in an undergraduate theology text.”
