- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5The author just removed the edition I was using to study without warning! All my highlighted notes are gone and I have a major final exam in 5 weeks! The Family: A Christian Perspective on the Contemporary Home, By Jack O. Balswick and Judith K. Balswick.
The website said that we will get ample warning before a title is removed and nothing ever came through!
