The Four Gospels on Sunday: The New Testament and the Reform of Christian Worship by Gordon Lathrop
That's shipping July 1st, and you should already have it on order, because I'm pretty certain I've had to inform you once before that it's on prepub.[:D]
The Four Gospels on Sunday: The New Testament and the Reform of Christian Worship
Now tell me why I want it. I still haven't made up my mind.
This is timely, as I'm working on a large list for Fortress Press right now. Thank you!
Gabe, if you're working on a list for Fortress Press right now, here are some more to make sure are on the list, from my hard copy library:
I have checked that none of these are currently available on Logos.com, but I haven't checked if they've been already requested by others on the Suggestions forum.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer: A Biography by Eberhard Bethge
I would love to have Bethge's biography of Bonhoeffer, I think the fact that he was a friend of Bonhoeffer adds a valuable perspective.
The Christology Controversy (Sources of Early Christian Thought series) by Richard Norris
The whole series would be good. Admittedly I only own the Trinitarian Controversy volume but have heard decent things about the rest of them.
This is timely, as I'm working on a large list for Fortress Press right now.
In that case, and since Fortress is a Lutheran press, will you take any suggestions?[:D] They publish some of rabbi Neusner's, and they use horribly bad glue in their paperbacks. If the books are a couple of years old, they fall to pieces as soon as you open them.[:(]
The most asked for are the Tosefta and A Rabbi Talks with Jesus, but I doubt either of those are Fortress. In fact, I can't figure out which ones are. Fortress themselves only list the five that are in print, and Amazon... well, the the guy seems to publish about a book a month, so there are a few to check out... And the Fortress title I have by him doesn't show up at all. Perhaps you could get a complete list from Fortress, and we could tell you what we want?

Thanks fgh, I missed that one in pre pub.

Fortunately that won't be a problem with the Logos editions. [;)]
You can do an Advanced Search on Amazon and search for books by Jacob Neusner that are published by Fortress. Here's the list I came up with (asterisk marks those books available in Kindle):

I'll add Neusner's works to my list.
Thanks, Gabe. What about my list by other authors from my post above? I know some of those are probably out of print and maybe Fortress doesn't even own the rights to them anymore, but they'd all be books I would like to see in Logos if possible. Whatever ones you're able to secure the rights to. Thanks!
Gentle people, please stop it. It is wrong to tempt someone. Now stop tempting me. Look at all the good stuff on the background to the Judeo-Christian faith. Siggghhhhh. If only my wallet would cooperate.

I'm going through a massive list so I don't target works we already have in collections, but I don't think there'll be a problem getting any of those, so long as there aren't rights issues.
That's encouraging. None of those ones I listed are already available in Logos collections.

I was just trying to get the Lutheran side discussing potential resources ... I had to be fair having helped Anglicans and Orthodox.[:(]
If your eye causes you to sin, cut it out! Not the eye, I mean, but the looking. Just unsubscribe from this forum and don't look at it again. [:)]Or be like Job and make a covenant with your eyes not to look lustfully upon a virgin list of potential Logos resources. (Job 31:1)
Sorry.
Here are some more for your list, Gabe. I'd forgotten to include titles that were published by Augsburg before it became part of Augsburg Fortress (and which are now mostly listed on Amazon as coming from Augsburg Fortress Press):
If an Aussie can make a humble suggestion, well, two...two of my favourite books are published by Fortress Press, and both are edited by James H. Charlesworth...they are "Hillel and Jesus" and "The Messiah".

But they are so attractive. The silver lining is that Logos is on a fast track to fulfilling my dream of "Having Every Thing Ever Written or Spoken in Religion, Formatted for Logos Bible Software".
Fortunately that won't be a problem with the Logos editions.
Exactly.
You can do an Advanced Search on Amazon and search for books by Jacob Neusner that are published by Fortress.
I should have known there was an advanced search somewhere, though I can't say I can find it even now.
Here's the list I came up with
Thanks, Rosie.
What most interests me is:
Now, that also looks very tempting. And Charlesworth will sell, little doubt about that.
In general: if it deals with both Judaism and Christianity at the same time, I'm probably [more or less] interested.

They hide it pretty well, but I've bookmarked it because it's the only way I ever search for books on Amazon anymore. To find it, hover over Books (1) on the left menu on the Amazon home page, then click Books (2) on the side menu that comes up.
Once you're on the main Books page, you'll find Advanced Search in tiny font among the links below the search box:

You could say that again! There's no way I would have found that except by mere chance. I don't think I've ever been to the main 'Books' page. Thanks.
Another thread wanting Neusner: Need...Neusner...Now
Dietrich Bonhoeffer: A Biography by Eberhard Bethge I would love to have Bethge's biography of Bonhoeffer, I think the fact that he was a friend of Bonhoeffer adds a valuable perspective.
This is now available for pre-order as part of the Bonhoeffer Studies Collection. Yay!
Jerusalem in the Time of Jesus by Joachim Jeremias
Good to see this is now on pre-pub along with other Fortress titles.
