Summary: Note Latin is deleted not translated
Comment: Note that the long latin quotations in the original book have simply been deleted, not translated. Still worthwhile even if many sections go over the head of the average reader--many other sections are accessible and made me exclaim "he is the Reformed C. S. Lewis".

Summary: Abridged? Decimated!
Comment: Anyone wanting to read Hodge, should go with the three volume edition. Yes, there is far too much interaction with the pseudo-science of the day, but this "abridgement" lays waste to whole areas of interest to anyone who would want to read Hodge in the first place. It's interesting that one of the areas where the cutting is most obvious is in the area where the "editor" disagrees with Hodge the most, that is the locus of "eschatology". The editor is a Premillennialist and Hodge, like all Princetonians was a clear Postmillennialist. If you want to read Hodge without the excess verbiage, buy A.A Hodge's "Outlines of Theology", which is based on the very same lectures that Charles Hodge published as his Systematics. It's simpler, yet doesn't alter the truth the way this chopped-up mess does. This abridgement is a master maligned.

Summary: Serious Binding Problems
Comment: Those of you thinking of purchasing the most recent Hodge's three volume hardcover edition should just purchase the abridged volume. The hardcover volumes have serious binding flaws that it will make your reading very uncomfortable (it's very difficult to separate and turn the pages!). The publishers (for some reason that is a mystery) decided to make these three lengthy volumes into the size of small paperbacks. Get an older edition of the three volume work with more flexible binding. I hope the publishers read this and know that if one wants a friendly customer base, they should take into consideration how to bind books properly.
