This collection contains two books. You can't look inside either of them. Would love to be able to point people to that page to look inside and see the TOC to decide whether they want to buy.
AT THE VERY LEAST...it would be nice if they could actually list the titles of the essays that are included in essay collections. Seriously, why would I buy an essay collection and not know what the contents are? About half of the essays that Logos offers are a pig in a poke.

The third, fifth, and sixth items appear to be essays, but about what exactly?
We're working on several phases of improvement to product detail pages. A few things we have in the works:
There are tons of other improvements planned, but those are the items relevant to your feedback.
I'm sorry our progress isn't faster, but it'll be a big priority for us in 2014.
We're working on several phases of improvement to product detail pages. A few things we have in the works: Every resource will have a page on Logos.com that will allow you to learn more about it, even if it's not yet available for individual purchase. We're going to start embedding the TOC in product pages so you can see the contents of the book. We'll probably also add the see-inside feature to items within a collection.

Thank you, Phil! All of these sound like excellent improvements to the website, and I'm looking forward to the other ones too.
Incidentally, what ever happened to the plans to have a direct link from the website to get to the browsing pages for all authors and all publishers? They are hidden gems! They need to be accessible to everyone, not just to people who happen to know the URLs to get to them. I suggest making the "More" link at the bottom of each of those sections in the left sidebar of the Products home page go to those pages:
Currently it just goes to a wimpy expansion of the list of authors, but doesn't by any means allow users to browse through all available authors alphabetically.
Also the Genre list is pretty minimal at present. I would like to see that fleshed out more and have more titles actually findable by drilling down on genre. This is from the Products main page. Don't tell me Logos only has 5 Theology books and 1 Reference book, and so on!
It's high on my really, really, really long list of improvements to Logos.com. I'm really sorry it's taken so long to address.
This is actually a mistake. Originally, genre was intended to be a facet category only for Vyrso books. Occasionally, people accidentally check the genre box for Logos books. Currently, there's significant overlap with the topic facet. We'll give some more thought to whether Genre makes sense on Logos.com.
That's great to hear.
