Concerns brought to me about a new book attacking EGW now in Logos
My Anglican brother product manager alerted me that an attack book on EGW just got posted as an SDA product in Logos: Prophetess of Health by Ronald Numbers, which caused a lot of confusion several decades ago. It mixes basically sound research with some unnecessary insinuations or conclusions. What's going on with this book now in Logos?
First of all, please know that nobody here at Logos was targeting Adventists with this book. It came over from Eerdman's in a huge bulk licensing deal that involved more than 300 books (some of which are really great acquisitions). I
immediately had it un-tagged as a "Seventh-day Adventist" document--one benefit of representing our church here is that I can look after SDA interests appropriately.

Thank you Martin. While I personally believe in freedom of speech and do prefer to have this book available on Logos I also believe it should not be tagged as Seventh-day Adventist to avoid misunderstandings.

Yes, a library is a big tent with books of all kinds to research. It contains more than a suggested reading list. So I agree, Filipe.
