Historia5 out of 5 stars 46
First published in 1981 and long out of print, The Holy Angels has yet to be surpassed as a comprehensive and comprehensible account of the nature of the angels and their role in our salvation. In layperson's terms, Mother Alexandra presents the essence of everything the church has to teach us about the angels, beginning with the Old Testament, continuing through the New Testament, and concluding with the tradition of the church as expressed in her theology, hymnography, and iconography.

Flowery language, not much info
Revisado: 08-09-20
My son and I started skipping through the book hoping for some concrete information on angels. Mostly we got summaries of Bible vignettes that we already knew and flowery language on the wonders of salvation. Little hard and fast information on angels. Maybe it got better later but we eventually gave up after repeated disappointments. If you already know abit about the teaching on angels I would not bother with this book. Maybe as a devotional.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 948
Byzantium is too-often considered merely the "eastern rump" of the old Roman Empire, a curious and even unsettling mix of the classical and medieval. Yet it was, according to Professor Harl, "without a doubt the greatest state in Christendom through much of the Middle Ages," and well worth our attention as a way to widen our perspective on everything from the decline of imperial Rome to the rise of the Renaissance.

Harl is a joy to listen to
Revisado: 07-21-15
Professor Harl is easy to listen to and clearly knows his subject. The Roman East gets so little air time in most history courses, so this one ably fills a hole in how most of us are educated. My only beef with all The Great Courses on Audible is the lack of any supplementary materials - at least a map would be useful. However, this is a great value so I wouldn't complain too much

Boring and little new
Revisado: 04-11-12
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Told me something significant that anyone who has paid any attention to health issues for last 10 years or so didn't already know.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
If you know nothing about how to stay healthy it might give you some ideas, but on the other hand some of what he says seems to be deliberately provocative and must be taken with a grain of salt. For instance, why should I believe his views on Vitamin D as opposed to dozens, if not hundreds, of studies that say otherwise?
Any additional comments?
I seldom stop listening to a book before it is over but this provided so little useful information that I finally decided to stop wasting my time. Oh, and note other reviewers' comments on how he plugs the services of his companies.
