  This handbook to the Bible places a strong focus on items that use a concept-led presentation to bring new angles to things, such as questions, questions featuring interrogative-style analysis of both sides of an issue, and cultural comparisons giving key tourist guide style information on how today's culture compares with that being considered. In essence, this handbook aims to give all the required information and more on what the Bible is about, but to do so in an economical form and with a lightness of touch that makes it approachable without undermining its serious points.
