"An explosive, fascinating book that reveals how the Bible cannot be used as a rulebook when it comes to sex. A terrific read by a top scholar." --Bart Ehrman, author of Misquoting Jesus

Boston University's cutting-edge religion scholar Jennifer Wright Knust reveals the Bible's contradictory messages about sex in this thoughtful, riveting, and timely reexploration of the letter of the gospels. In the tradition of Bart Erhman's Jesus Interrupted and John Shelby Spong's Sins of Scripture, Knust's Unprotected Texts liberates us from the pervasive moralizing--the fickle dos and don'ts--so often dictated by religious demagogues. Knust's powerful reading offers a return to the scripture, away from the mere slogans to which it is so often reduced.

Totally Unacceptable
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I purchased this at $129.81 for a new book this book appears to be used & it’s obviously damaged. This is not what I spend my money on. I need this book for class. This is unacceptable on so many levels.

Comprehensive book. Great study tool for students or nurses entering Maternal Child specialties.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Excellent read. Using for review before taking on a new role in Maternal Child Nursing. Comprehensive. Great tables, images, and key concepts and skills check questions are included for each chapter. My book spine is wearing out but I've read more than 1/3 the book and been toting around in a bag and has had heavy use for at least a month.
