There are many forms of prayer. This little book provides the kick-start, spiritually, for more formal and regular prayer-living. Centered on the psalms and holy scripture, any Christian or person interested in Christian prayer life can gain much for a small dollar investment. By one and get one for your closest friend. Pray together!

The book contains the morning, evening, and night prayers of the Liturgy of Hours which are the Catholic Church's only required prayers for those clergy and religious men and women active in the apostolate, as opposed to the monastics who have to pray more at different times (mid-morning, mid-day, mid-afternoon, etc) of the day the Liturgy of the Hours. However, this book is also good for lay people who desire a structured way of praying that resonates, echoes, and harmonizes with the prayers of monks, nuns, priests, and religious men and women all over the globe, at every hour, today and in the past centuries. The book is handy, easy to read and follow, and leatherette bound. A good gift also for people who are spiritually serious.

Nice
I like this prayer book. It is easier to use compared to the four volume Breviary. But like the Breviary you need to know how to pray it.

Useful for praying before Bible study
We use this prayer book in our Bible study group. Although it's much shorter than the Christian Prayer Book, it works great for our class.
