First published in 1970, Bernard E. Jones's selection of Gifford
lectures includes excerpts from the writings of over ninety
scholars who occupied a Gifford Chair between 1888 and 1968. Lord
Gifford had asked his lecturers to be 'honest to God', insisting
that they should be 'earnest enquirers after truth' and had always
envisaged the lectures being published. Dr Jones's anthology is
arranged under headings suggested by phrases from Lord Gifford's
will. The selection, which includes names such as William James,
A.N. Whitehead, Temple, Barth, Brunner, Bultmann, Niebuhr and
Tillich, was made in such a way that the reader would be able to
really grasp what natural theology is about. Bernard Ewart Jones
served as a Methodist minister, before being appointed to the
Lewins Chair of Philosophy at his old college, Hartley Victoria,
Manchester. He was awarded a doctorate by the University of Leeds
in 1966 for his thesis on 'The Concept of Natural Theology in
Gifford Lectures'.

First published in 1950, the 'Freemasons' Guide and Compendium' is
filled with authentic, detailed information on a wide variety of
subjects related to masons and masonry. Written by an experienced
Freemason with the interests of rank-and-file members of the
ordinary lodge in mind?especially the young Craftsman who wished to
learn the nature of Freemasonry's claim to have a history that goes
back to ancient days?it provides key facts about masonic history,
tradition, and lore. In doing so, the book offers a far greater
scope of information than any other comparable book. And Bernard E.
Jones critically examines conflicting ideas about how some of the
traditions came to be, coming to conclusions of his own.
