5.0 out of 5 stars Great translation, it is visually attractive.
This is a fantastic translation that is very close to the original Greek. The type setting is very clear and attractive. I have found it to be very popular with university students; it packs very easily into their backpacks. It is a great gift for professionals to use during their lunchtime. I recommend it enthusiastically.

2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't Hold Up. . . Good Value?
When I wanted an NIV companion for my NASB NT I purchased this volume at my local Christian bookstore.

I carry my little NT in either a suit coat or my pants pocket daily as I've done for decades. This version won't hold up to that type of use. In Texas where I live this NT is subject to both heat and humidity if carried in a suit pocket, and the cover...

2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't Hold Up. . . Good Value?, June 14, 2008
This review is from: NIV Pocket Thin New Testament (Paperback)
When I wanted an NIV companion for my NASB NT I purchased this volume at my local Christian bookstore.

I carry my little NT in either a suit coat or my pants pocket daily as I've done for decades. This version won't hold up to that type of use. In Texas where I live this NT is subject to both heat and humidity if carried in a suit pocket, and the cover started separating from the spine very soon. Now, I don't perspire any more than the average person, and I've never had a problem with my Cambridge leather NT, but this one simply didn't hold up.

I'm not destitute, but I see no reason for purchasing this NT either for one's own use or for others. For an additional $2.00 one can purchase the Zondervan NIV NT with a very attractive and durable leather-look cover, and I don't know many people who literally couldn't afford $6.95 instead. It's a terrific value at that price.
