This book by Dr Henry T. Hudson is a collection of studies that first appeared in serial form in his monthly Bible study mailings. They are selections from his written dialogue with various pastors over the last ten years. Apart from the first four, which are inserted by way of emphasizing the authority of Holy Scripture, the rest focus, as the subtitle declares, on reviewing and refining dispensational thinking in areas such as: Biblical prophecy, the Kingdom of God, and the nature of the mystery that was revealed to the Apostle Paul. While accepting and advocating the pragmatic value of the dispensational approach to the Bible, Dr. Hudson is never-the-less of the opinion that some of the deductive reasoning associated with this approach has allowed questionable premises to dictate faulty interpretations. In consequence, there are chinks in the armor.

This almanac of sound words important to artists and scholars highlights words that expand the way we speak (and write) about sonic experiences. Why write about sound, and how? If sonic philosophy is the attempt "to think about sound by philosophical means," then a metaphilosophical debate appears almost immediately on the horizon: What is called for is an understanding about sound and language, but also about the preconditions of musical understanding. What is at stake is the question of language and sound, as well as expanding how we speak about sonic experience. This almanac tackles these questions from artistic, experimental and personal perspectives. An assemblage of nearly 70 practitioners and theoreticians, artists and scholars offer their favorite 'sound word.' These sound words are onomatopoetical, mythological, practical; words of personal importance to the artists and their craft; words from their memory, related to sound. Many entries are not in English – some are untranslatable – and all are accompanied by a personal, explanatory, poetic entry. These are words that have the potential to change our perspective on listening-musicking-thinking.
