Há muito tempo uma história sinistra é contada na pequena Chapel Croft. Cinco séculos atrás, mártires protestantes foram traídos, e então queimados. Trinta anos atrás, duas adolescentes desapareceram sem deixar vestígios. E há algumas semanas, o responsável pela paróquia local se enforcou na nave da igreja. A reverenda Jack Brooks, mãe solteira de uma jovem de quatorze anos, chega a esse vilarejo em busca de um recomeço. Em vez disso, encontra um lugar tomado por conspirações e segredos, e é recebida com um estranho pacote de boas-vindas—um kit de exorcismo e um bilhete.

Wisdom, encouragement, and exhortation is contained here. Not because of the author's brilliance, but because of the words of truth contained in the gospel of John. And just as the Apostle John didn't draw any attention to himself, so also J. C. Ryle clearly and wonderfully directs his words and our thoughts toward the inspired words of scripture. If we truly love God, we will love his word; and the more we study his word, the more we will love God.

If a country's Gross Domestic Product increases each year, but so does the percentage of its people deprived of basic education, health care, and other opportunities, is that country really making progress? If we rely on conventional economic indicators, can we ever grasp how the world's billions of individuals are really managing? In this powerful critique, Martha Nussbaum argues that our dominant theories of development have given us policies that ignore our most basic human needs for dignity and self-respect.

Criticando os argumentos dos relativistas, a obra – parte da coleção de luxo C.S. Lewis, em capa dura e nova tradução – alerta para os perigos de questionar os valores morais objetivos, comuns a todos, independente de suas diferentes culturas, sem os quais as pessoas correm o risco de perder a humanidade. Com bases sólidas e profundas, Lewis mostra que a tentativa de abolir a moralidade equivale, no fim, a abolir o próprio homem, e convida os leitores a não se render à tendência relativista que permeia a sociedade contemporânea.
