This is a well-written book, full of interesting and relevant quotes, and some good examples. However, it could have been a good bit shorter; the first half good have been edited down somewhat, even for those without an existing grasp of modernity and postmodernity.

I found the most useful section to be "Practices for Engagement" at the end, where he makes some good suggestions about personalisation, specifics, humour, listening and more.

Good for people who haven't read widely on preaching, or haven't engaged with postmodernity, but otherwise probably could be passed over. ( )
