About this title

Review:

I welcome this inclusive language edition . . . There has been no meddlesome tampering with language which relates to God; only what relates to us has been changed. . . The revisers have done their work with skill and sensitivity, and without in the process developing a clumsy, ponderous or repetitive style. I congratulate them. - The Rev. Dr John Stott, Rector Emeritus, All Soul' It faithfully presents to us the biblical texts, and makes it wonderfully accessible to a wider than ever readership in our changing society. - Elaine Storkey, biblical scholar, writer and forme Small but gloriously significant changes make clear the truth that God's Word applies to all, men, women and children. - Joyce Baldwin, Writer and former Principal of Trin I am delighted to use the NIV Inclusive Language Edition when teaching the Bible to modern students. They are quick to pounce on sexism in Christian apeech, and we must cut it out. This version seems fresh and up to date.' - Nigel Lee, Head of Student Ministries, Universitie

About the Author:

Published over 21 years ago, the NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION has become the world's best-selling contemporary Bible translation. More than 100 scholars worked for 15 years to complete it. Their main concern is that the NIV is faithful to the original languages while producing a clear, beautifully written and dignified translation suitable for private and public use. A 'gender accurate' version was first published in part in 1996.
