Default Robert Eisenman new book

Hi,

Does anybody know around here what is happening with Eisenman’s new book, "The Cup of the Lord" (or is it "The Gospel Code"?) I’ve looked at amazon.com and at amazon.co.uk and it seems the book has several embodiments with different versions and prices. And what is the release date?

The publisher's page says it will be available in September.

I like Eisenman because he goes through the sources so thoroughly. Unfortunately, he tends to be extremely repetitive, seemingly in hope that he can wear the reader down to the point of accepting his bizarre interpretations. He also sort of flirts with mythicism. I'm looking forward to seeing what he has to say.

previous thread with amazon links

The Gospel Code (or via: amazon.co.uk) (once titled The New Testament Code: The Cup of the Lord, the Damascus Covenant, and the Blood of Christ)

Amazon UK link, where it is already available.

I don't see any reviews of the book yet.
