In an age when practical, common-sense wisdom, the kind of thing we get in the Book of Proverbs, is all too rare (the problem with common-sense is that's not that common ), Anthony Selvaggio has set himself a gargantuan task: how to assimilate the (seemingly) wisdom of Solomon and present in a reasonable, structured way. And he has succeeded in what must be seen as an admirable way This is a sign of springtime in what is largely a neglected section of the Scriptures with a promise for those who read this volume of harvest to come in practical Christian living. With advice on such topics as work and wealth, courtship and children, Selvaggio has given us a valuable treasure of practical wisdom. Just what Solomon intended.
