| Summary: | From the hardback review: 'Read and be challenged!' Baptist Times From the hardback review: 'Well-documented and supplied with excerpts from primary source materials, Newport's study provides an intriguing look at how the book of Revelation has frequently been the victim of highly subjective exegesis. The practical result of this work is that better understanding of the exegetical assumptions and approaches of apocalyptically-minded groups like the Branch Davidians may help prevent another Waco-like disaster.'
