LOGOS: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies

Which of your friends and family would not rejoice to find, under the Christmas tree this month, a subscription to Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies? Consider the many outstanding features of this revue:

• The oldest journal of its kind in North America
  
• This journal alone features more recent book reviews than many other comparable journals combined.
  
• This journal alone manages to be published consistently on schedule
• This journal features the widest array of scholars--historians, theologians, anthropologists, psychologists, canonists, religious studies scholars, sociologists, philosophers, and others--from the widest array of backgrounds: we welcome all who are interested in Eastern Christianity, and one does not need to belong to a particular church or denominational "society" in order to contribute.
• This journal publishes leading scholars from Oxford, Harvard, Princeton, Notre Dame, Chicago, and many other universities in North America and Europe.
