I am giving away a free (brand new) copy of David C. Parker's An Introduction to the New Testament Manuscripts and Their Texts (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2008). Here is the blurb from the back cover:

"This 2008 book is a major English-language introduction to the earliest manuscripts of the New Testament. An essential handbook for scholars and students, it provides a thorough grounding in the study and editing of the New Testament text combined with an emphasis on the dramatic current developments in the field. Covering ancient sources in Greek, Syriac, Latin and Coptic, it: describes the manuscripts and other ancient textual evidence, and the tools needed to study them, deals with textual criticism and textual editing, describing modern approaches and techniques, with guidance on the use of editions, introduces the witnesses and textual study of each of the main sections of the New Testament, discussing typical variants and their significance. A companion website with full-colour images provides generous amounts of illustrative material, bringing the subject alive for the reader."

There are four opportunities to enter the contest:

I have not read the book but I think it makes a great contribution to the knowledge of the New Testament manuscripts. It answers many questions about the text and the literary context.

I find it amazing that we can still learn beyond what are taught.
