I only own the first two of them on my list, one of which is by someone I know (Jeremy Begbie). I admit I have not read them yet. I suppose the series is rather on the scholarly side for Logos's main target audience. But I don't think it's any more so than, say, the Paternoster Theological Studies Collection. Maybe I'm getting carried away with all my suggestions... I'm going to cool it for a while. They've got enough ideas to mull over for quite some time now.

Okay, i am in for this since it is along the same lines as the Paternoster Theological Studies Collection. We in the UK when we hear Oxford or Cambridge, i mean - it says it all. Nothing else needs to be said or added.
There are three monograph from Paternoster i would love to see in Logos. Not sure why it was left out of the above offerings. Thanks for the response.
Ted.

We in the US hold Oxbridge in awe, though I have several friends who have gotten in to one or the other for grad school (including my uncle who did his DPhil at Oxford), so it doesn't seem like it's beyond the reach of mere mortals to understand the writings of Oxford and Cambridge publications. After all, C.S. Lewis was an Oxford don <b>and</b> a Cambridge don, and his books are quite accessible. Lewis's fellow Inking, Charles Williams, had a lifelong career at Oxford University Press. And a friend of mine -- fellow alum from my seminary -- works for OUP. So I don't have the same feeling towards those presses as you do. When I see Oxford or Cambridge on the spine of a book, it says quality to me more than "out of my reach." I've got many wonderful print-based books published by one or the other, some of which are quite down-to-earth or are basic reference works anybody would use. Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress is among them -- a classic in many Christians' libraries. Granted, these works of theology are more esoteric than Bunyan or Lewis, but I don't believe we should ever feel that anything is beyond the realm of possibility to understand, especially with the support of all the linked Logos resources.
