This is the remarkable story of the English language; from its beginnings as a minor guttural Germanic dialect to its position today as a truly established global language. The Adventure of English is not only an enthralling story of power, religion, and trade, but also the story of people, and how their lives continue to change the extraordinary language that is English.

Perfect for Audio

This is a great book to listen to. It's good to be able to listen to how the words actually sound, rather than trying to imagine what they would sound like when read off a page.
Enjoyed the book tremendously and highly recommend it.

Adrian Plass in now in demand after his account of "serious spiritual experiences" in The Sacred Diary of Adrian Plass (aged 37 3/4).

A funny look at the church
Revisado: 04-14-06
Adrian Plass has a wonderful way of looking at the way Christians behave, and the gap between what they really are and what they appear to be in public. It's full of British humour (he warns that Americans do not understand irony). It's a wonderfully encouraging book and life giving book. WAARNING: Not for anyone who takes the church too seriously.

Who was Henri Nouwen? And why do we urgently need to hear his voice today? On the Return of the Prodigal Son, you will learn how a chance encounter with a painting by Rembrandt led this beloved Dutch priest and writer on the last great spiritual adventure of his life. Celebrated as the author of many books on contemporary spiritual life, and a former professor of theology, Nouwen spent his final years ministering to handicapped adults before he died unexpectedly in 1996. In this rare archival session, you will experience Nouwen's unsurpassed teachings on the parable of the prodigal son...

Supprised
Revisado: 03-23-05
I had expected to get Nouwen reading his book: Instead it was a series of talks given at a retreat. It was a good listen, however I feel this should have been made more clear in the description of the product.
Nouwen speaks well, and shars a large number of insights.

Really funny
Revisado: 03-22-05
I really enjoyed listening to this book. Screwtape gives a fresh point of view of the christians jouney to heaven with wit and sophistication. None of the simplistic formulations such as 'being saved by the blood' that we sometimes hear.
