It was a book published in 1990 by various faculty members of Westminster Theological Seminary as a response to many of the Theonomic writings of the past few years. I may also read the book sometime if I can get a copy - but if you read it, don't neglect the book written in response to it as well.
I managed to pick my copy up used. If possible you should definitely get a copy. If you can't get one, check out a local seminary or try for an interlibrary loan.
Here's the general information about the book along with a listing of the contents.
