Crap! Microsoft Books Is No More (Updated)

Microsoft’s live book search is now defunct, and users of the site were given barely a weeks notice. This means that many of the online books which I spent hours upon hours searching for in order to link to on this site are no longer available. I will try to find new links to these books but, obviously, this is going to take a lot of time. I don’t know which books listed on this site are from this Microsoft source, which means I will have to go through all the books listed to find them. Should a user click on a book which takes him/her to the Microsoft live search site, please tell me the title of the book in the comment box as this will aid me in my efforts.

I will continue to update my progress.

Update 1 05/26/08I have gone through the philosophy page and was able to find alternate sources for almost all of the effected books.  I was not as fortunate on the “Lives of Saints and Holy People page.”  Sometime soon I will begin working on the Theology page.
