Would love to see Gerald Bray's new book in Logos: God Is Love: A Biblical and Systematic Theology.

I have just finished reading my hard copy

Ted, 

from the Amazon reviewers and Bray's preface I get that this is a systematic theology for those who would not normally expose themselves to such stuff - and accordingly, it doesn't interact with all those other scholars etc.

I had a look into crossway's teaser excerpt: http://static.crossway.org/excerpt/god-is-love/god-is-love-download.pdf 

In fact, the only footnotes are references to bible passages and I didn't see any in-text references to other works (the preface mentions in passing Lewis' Mere Christianity and Stott's Basic Christianity, both unfortunately glaring gaps in Logos' offering). Does this hold true for the whole book? Do you see any point for Logos-level data and cross-reference tagging? 

Because, I don't. Thus, imho this book would be much better suited for Vyrso than Logos - and since Crossway already sells it as an eBook, it could be offered much faster, say, next week, for a much better price (say, matching Amazon's current $12.99).

Edit: I made the suggestion in the Vyrso forum: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/73617.aspx - see what Brian Williams thinks about that.
