Author Info / Back Matter for monographs

This has to have come up before, so forgive me.

I need to include a short biographical sketch as part of a book review for a book that I've read in Logos. I know that kind of information is on the back of the physical book (based on the "Look Inside" at Amazon). I can't find it within the Logos version of the book. Is it not available? If not, how do folks generally handle this?

In case it matters, the book is Packer's "A Quest for Godliness" ( http://www.logos.com/product/603/a-quest-for-godliness - I suppose I'm qualified to write a book review on the web site now .

Thanks,

Donnie

Yes, it's not available. I handle it with mild annoyance and a shrug ... the go to Amazon or wikipedia for the information - google if they don't pan out.

Sometimes a brief biographical sketch is available on the Logos website, but I agree it should be included in the book itself. Not just monographs but commentaries too, if there is back matter on the printed book cover or a single author/editor whose bio could be found somewhere.

I think this has been requested before, but if not, it should be posted in Suggestions and/or on UserVoice.

Ah yes, I just found it. It was me who suggested it: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/34344.aspx. Maybe you'd like to go bump that thread?
