Free Download Marvin R. VanDam, "The Essential Nibley: Excerpts from the Writings of Hugh Nibley"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1609079035 | EPUB | pages: 352 | 2.4 mb
Drawing from the very best of Hugh Nibley, this collection of excerpts feels more like a guided tour through a brilliant mind than a quote book. Arranged thematically, it covers the highlights of Nibley’s best thinking and writing on everything from the Creation, through ancient people, times, and documents, to modern-day prophets and righteous living today. Two features give great insight into the man and his life’s work: a very personal life sketch about Hugh Nibley written by his grandson, and an introduction about Nibley’s contribution to LDS literature and scholarship, his unique dynamic within the Church, and his abiding testimony. With highlights drawn from nearly 10,000 pages of the Collected Works of Hugh Nibley, The Essential Nibley shows how Nibley continues to give thinkers something to believe in and believers something to think about, even today.
