Justification and the New Perspectives on Paul

http://www.prpbooks.com/inventory.ht...v_title&id=872

I saw this book by Guy Waters today and was wondering if anyone had read it yet, and if so what was their opinion on it. I'm thinking of going and getting it after Christmas. I'm looking for a book that explains the different new views on Paul and then answers them from the historical Reformed faith, does this book do that well?

I have a lecture given by Waters on the NPP ---->Superb!

I think the book will probably be even better.

Guy is a well-read and intelligent sound Reformed theologian. He is also personally familiar with the NPP, having studied under Sanders. I recommend this book highly.

The book is very critical of the New Perspective. I've been wanting to read it for a long time, but I'm behind on all of the personal reading projects I have assigned myself as it is.

For what it's worth (probably not much), here is Doug Wilson's review of the book:
