Golgotha Press has addressed this problem and readers who download the books as of November 2011 can access a functional table of contents by going to the front of the book and paging forward two pages. Because of the size of this book, the ""active"" feature in the conversion is removed. We are trying resolve this problem, but until then, please follow the steps above. If you still experience the problem, please contact us so we can investigate exactly what is happening. Please note, however, that the table of contents does not become active until you purchase the book--preview mode does not currently support active TOC's. We apologize for any confusion or frustration this has caused.
