Shlama Paul,
I have been doing some research on Eastern Christianity and the Church of the East and came across a book by Wilhelm Baum, Dietmar W. Winkler called "The Church of the East: A concise history". I came across this from a wikipedia article on the Church of the East and I have seen that some here on the forum have said that the wiki article is not entirely accurate. The book itself is out of print but there are still copies that can be purchased from select online vendors but at a price of over 100 dollars. I was wondering if you were familiar with this book and how you feel about the information presented in the book? Is this a good investment? If not are there other books you would recommend?
Peace and Blessings,
Donald
