The Fathers Know Best - Your Essential Guide to the… di Jimmy Akin
The Fathers Know Best: Your Essential Guide to the Teachings of the Early Church is a unique resource. It introduces you to the teachings of the first Christians in a way no other work can. It is specially designed to make it easy for you to find the information you want and need.
Exceptionally readable and engaging work on what can be a very technical and nuanced subject. Akin does a great job of explaining levels of authority within Church teaching, and why they matter. Through many examples and illustrations it gives clear guidance and method for understanding what you "have to believe" as a Catholic.
Brimming with citations, it gives ample gateway to further study on methods or particular doctrines.
My only two criticism would be it uses endnotes instead of footnotes (Personal peeve) and the index should be a bit more robust to make it easier to find where some examples are addressed.… (altro)

Basic introduction to the Old Testament. Addresses questions of style and why we have the books we have.
Akin is always succinct and on point in his writing. Good overview of how we should approach the prophecies of Scripture, and points out common errors.
