Book Description
A step-by-step guide to crafting a compelling scholarly book proposal—and seeing your book through to successful publication The scholarly book proposal may be academia’s most mysterious genre. You have to write one to get published, but most scholars receive no training on how to do so—and you may have never even seen a proposal before you’re expected to produce your own. The Book Proposal Book cuts through the mystery and guides prospective authors step by step through the process of crafting a compelling proposal and pitching it to university presses and other academic publishers. Laura Portwood-Stacer, an experienced developmental editor and publishing consultant for academic authors, shows how to select the right presses to target, identify audiences and competing titles, and write a project description that will grab the attention of editors—breaking the entire process into discrete, manageable tasks. The book features over fifty time-tested tips to make your proposal stand out; sample prospectuses, a letter of inquiry, and a response to reader reports from real authors; optional worksheets and checklists; answers to dozens of the most common questions about the scholarly publishing process; and much, much more. Whether you’re hoping to publish your first book or you’re a seasoned author with an unfinished proposal languishing on your hard drive, The Book Proposal Book provides honest, empathetic, and invaluable advice on how to overcome common sticking points and get your book published. It also shows why, far from being merely a hurdle to clear, a well-conceived proposal can help lead to an outstanding book.

The Christian Combat Manual
Author: Dan Story
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780899570372
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Prepare Yourself to Engage Today's Secular Culture The Christian Combat Manual will help Christians respond positively to their faith and the criticism aimed at Christianity. The Christian worldwide dominated American culture until recent times. Christian principles and values directed governmental policies and set the standards for judicial, educational, ethical, and social behavior in this country. Not so today! People have become apathetic, even indifferent to immoral behavior that a few decades ago was universally recognized as evil and condemned. Vulgarity and violence flood our entertainment industry. Cheating is commonplace in college classrooms, as is corruption and greed in the workplace. The Christian Combat Manual is carefully constructed to help Christians engage culture by training them to confront and respond to major intellectual and cultural challenges they face today. One chapter encourages the use of the Socratic method-asking "counter-questions" that place the burden of proof on unbelievers, forcing them to defend their beliefs. The Christian Combat Manual is divided into five parts, as Part One defends the historically accurate accounts of divine revelation while Part Two tackles the raging controversy regarding the theory of evolution. Part Three demonstrates the existence of God, while Part Four centers on the person of Jesus Christ. Part Five focuses specifically on modern issues and secular postmodern doctrines.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
You may have heard the age-old saying, “You can’t trust the Bible because it is written by a bunch of men.” In It’s Only a Book, author Justin Hoffman challenges that statement as well as numerous others related to religion, Christianity, and the Bible. More than an apologetic volume meant to tackle the difficult questions given by skeptics that target the Bible, this masterwork is designed to equip the Christian as a quick-reference-tool. Hoffman offers a thought-provoking discussion about this book that was written during the course of 1,600 years. He confronts the most insidious attacks against the Bible. It’s Only a Book offers a concise, yet definitive Christian work that rushes headlong into the debate over the authorship and authenticity of the Bible. Hoffman presents information that encourages people to look differently at the Bible and all that it reveals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSBG15iSufo&feature=youtu.be
