In Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, 22 men and women commit their talents to produce the most thorough response yet to evangelical feminism. The book combines systematic argumentation with popular application. It deals with all the main passages of scripture brought forward in this controversy. All who are concerned with the fundamental question of the proper relationship between men and women in home, church, and society will want to read this important and informative book. - Back cover.
