This semester, Cornerstone students will use a custom textbook produced here at ACU. Last spring a group of Cornerstone faculty began work on the project, led by Cliff Barbarick, course director for Cornerstone. Thanks to countless hours invested by chapter authors, editors, and designers, our first crowd-sourced eBook is ready to go.
