I liked the book, simple, but well written and sound.
I offered it to my wife who hears Keller's sermons a lot, and ended up reading it before her

But just read D A Carson's commend of Keller's book on last Themelios:

In the world of Christian apologetics, I know no one more gifted in this Popperian form of argumentation than Tim Keller

Am I missing something about Google Books? Tim Keller's book is not all there; it's only a few pages.

No, that's okay. I've searched Google Books occasionally and always seem to end up with a preview. I was wondering if I was doing something wrong. I guess I wasn't. Thanks.
