[Finley Neal · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a small booklet abbreviating the extensive, independent evaluation of the updated New International Version Bible. I found this book helpful in judging the relevance and accuracy of the NIV11. The only thing I would have liked to see included are actual examples of scriptures printed that better explain the "gender-neutral" changes in this edition.
