Not to try to upstage you--I never would have known about the following if it had not been for your post--but Amazon has the same(?) book for 99 cents, also.

It's entitled How to Think About God: A Guide for the 20th-century Pagan : One Who Does Not Worship the God of Christians, Jews, or Muslims, Irreligious Persons.

The reason that I put a question mark after "same" is that it almost sounds, from the book description and subtitle, that this is a revision of some kind. I don't think that Adler ever revised his book. I think, but am not sure, that the text is one and the same as the original. It almost sounds like the publisher might be trying to throw people off so that they buy the book again, thinking that this is an update, revision, or whatever.

So, choose your poison--Kobo or Amazon. I'm an Amazonian, so I bought the Kindle version. I haven't followed your Kobo link yet. The Kobo would have been nice, because I would like to have it in another format, if something happened and the Kindle or Kobo disappeared one day from my hard drive. Stranger things have happened.

I've got the dead-tree version, somewhere in this mayhem around me that I call the inside of my house.

ADDENDUM: The Kobo book has the same-looking cover. Oop, it's Rakuten Kobo now. Excuse me.
