    12 sections of 16 pages.

    What a wonderful coincidence that the the wholesome truths from Jehovah just happen to fit into an economical printing format. We can be spiritually fed while maximizing profits.

    how is it
    possible, that books with such different themes ALL have 192 pages?

    And Jehovah God loved the bindery operation above all other Bethel departments, for the application of glue sent a restful odor up into his nostrils...

    You forgot:

    2002 Worship the Only True God 192 pages, paperback

    More fine, conveniently-sized spiritual food...

    Although, I might point out that all the "fine spiritual food (TM) " hasn't always fit neatly. The God's Eternal Purpose... book from 1974 actually changed to a smaller typefont part way through the book to make everything fit. Guess Jehovah was feeling extra-abundant that year...

    Thank you NeonMadman for reminding me of that book! It always amused me how the typeset got smaller and smaller as the book went along so as to cram the text into the right amount of pages!

    As for the others in the list, well, all I can say is that the writers must have had to cut some vital truths out in order to fit the text into the correct sized book!

    Edited for lousy spelling!

    Bad spelling, and an accidental double post - I'm not doing very well today!

    If the wholesome truths from Jehovah came in 192 page format, why did Fred Franz torture us with those 400 page books in the late '60s and early '70s that did nothing but melt our brains at the book study? Or wait a minute, maybe we just getting primed for 1975.
