Petals of Memory
Petals of Memory is a real revelation about a man who is not only one of the world's leading barristers in criminal law but also a giant for humanity - a committed and courageous advocate for human rights and the concept of "one world" where all peoples, races, religions co-exist in peace and harmony without borders, prejudice and injustice. Also on display is Peter's passion for the sea, love and romance. Peter does not do anything in half measures and is fearless even when faced with imminent danger - whether it is confronting the French Navy in Mururoa or Frank Bainimarama's thugs in Fiji. Peter Williams QC is New Zealand's leading criminal lawyer. He has been a lawyer for over 50 years and was appointed to the legal profession's most senior position of Queen's Counsel in 1987. He has written two other books Judicial Misconduct and the New Zealand bestseller A Passion for Justice.
Can We Trust the Gospels?
Is there evidence to believe the Gospels? The Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, John—are four accounts of Jesus’s life and teachings while on earth. But should we accept them as historically accurate? What evidence is there that the recorded events actually happened? Presenting a case for the historical reliability of the Gospels, New Testament scholar Peter Williams examines evidence from non-Christian sources, assesses how accurately the four biblical accounts reflect the cultural context of their day, compares different accounts of the same events, and looks at how these texts were handed down throughout the centuries. Everyone from the skeptic to the scholar will find powerful arguments in favor of trusting the Gospels as trustworthy accounts of Jesus’s earthly life.

Misquoting Jesus
When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when t...
