At the risk of treading into topics best left for the politics and religion subforum, and hopefully not crossing the line, it has been my experience that most Christian authors have no idea what truly drives people into an atheistic position.
I haven't read the book yet, but I feel sure that the author deals with more types of people who have left the faith than just those who have become atheists. I'm sure that he would include people who have, for example, embraced other religions (e.g, Hinduism, Islam) or even a non-evangelical "Christianity" (such as Unitarianism, Mormonism).

Personally, I would love to hear your insight into what drives people into an atheistic position, however. That would be off-topic on this thread and forum, as you suggested. Maybe you would be interested in talking about it on the politics and religion forum, if there is such a thing on Mobileread.
