Synopsis

America's 2008 presidential campaign prompted many people in the U.S. and around the world to seek more information about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly known as the Mormons. For those who wish to examine these beliefs from a Bible perspective, Mormons Under the Microscope is especially helpful. More than 300 Bible references are included. All Bible quotations are taken from the King James Version.

Each of the book's 77 questions is followed by a Brief Answer and a Detailed Answer, for the reader's convenience. Readers unfamiliar with Mormon terminology will find Question 77 particularly instructive. More than 200 terms are defined.

Among the numerous endorsements listed in the book are these: "In this concise but comprehensive compendium, Dr. Lauritsen provides amazing clarity in his responses to both simple and complex questions about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This book is required reading for those who want to understand a once-obscure faith tradition that has become one of the fastest growing religions in the world." Dr. A. Dean Byrd, University of Utah School of Medicine.

"Mormons Under the Microscope might be considered a Cliff Notes version of Mormon Doctrine...Dr. Lauritsen's straightforward, succinct approach is reminiscent of the style of the late LDS Apostle Neal A. Maxwell. Mormons Under the Microscope will be an excellent addition to our personal libraries."John S. Robinson, retired news editor of the Deseret News
