Studies in Theology

As a used book dealer now, I go through a lot of the donated books we get, to see which ones are worth selling online (and which ones to sell in bulk to Half Price Books). In going through the latest batch, I came across an old edition of Boettner's Studies in Theology that was worth next to nothing, so I bought it myself for a negligible amount. I'm interested in any thoughts on it people might have. It looks excellent from the table of contents - are the individual issues covered very systematically? Any peculiarities?

It's a collection of fugitive pieces that had originally been published in other places. Boettner (1901-1990) was a very judicious writer. I've never found anything in the way of major disagreements. He's been a blessing.

The book is still in print as far as I know.
