The appendix is rich in material which has been used in the church situation. Examples are: rules and policies of a Christian Education Committee, standing policies of a young peoples’ society, job analysis of church school personnel, a pro gram of development of potential leadership, and a church calendar. This book is very significant in that it is probably the first of its kind to apply principles of adminis tration directly to the organization of a local church. Undoubtedly other texts will follow which will build and improve on this beginning. The text is highly recommended for all who are interested in administration. It should be included in the library of all those who are in charge of Chris tian education in the local church. 227 pages; cloth; Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., Grand Rapids, Mich.; $3.95. — Reviewed by Dr. Kenneth D. Carlson.
