Folks, I know that I'm prone to melodrama and hyperbole when I post stuff (sometimes I feel like I've been channeling Billy Mays). But, without any melodrama and hyperbole, I want to tell you that this book has a truly fantastic markdown, resulting in an outstanding price on it.

It is Finding Truth: 5 Principles for Unmasking Atheism, Secularism, and Other God Substitutes, by Nancy Pearcey. It has exceptionally high ratings (just short of 5.0 at Christianbook, from 10 ratings; 4.7 stars, from 165 ratings, at Amazon; 4.42, from 442 ratings, at GoodReads (where the raters are generally more sparing in giving out the higher ratings)). It has just short of 400 pages (388, at Amazon).

Description
Don't Think, Just Believe?
That's the mantra in many circles today--whether the church, the classroom, the campus, or the voting booth.

Time for a Reality Check
Nancy Pearcey, bestselling and critically acclaimed author, offers fresh tools to break free from presumed certainties and test them against reality. In Finding Truth, she explains five powerful principles that penetrate to the core of any worldview--secular or religious--to uncover its deepest motivations and weigh its claims.

A former agnostic, Pearcey demonstrates that a robust Christian worldview matches reality--that it is not only true but attractive, granting higher dignity to the human person than any alternative.

Finding Truth displays Pearcey's well-earned reputation for clear and cogent writing. She brings themes to life with personal stories and real-world examples. The book includes a study guide shaped by questions from readers, from teens to college professors. It is ideal for individual or group study.

I deliberately waited until near the end of this post to tell you this information: the digital list price of the ebook is $22.99. The price on the ebook right now is 79 cents (Don't adjust your set!). That is only 3% of the digital list price. 3%!!! I know that that price is good at Amazon, and at Christianbook where it is a DRM Free ePub.

I bought the ebook at Christianbook sometime back. I "know" that I paid quite a bit more than 79 cents for it; I'm not going to check, because I don't want to know.

Honestly, I think that I will buy it at Amazon, too, because of what a great deal it is (and, to me, Amazon ebooks are so much easier to find in its library, than Christianbook's ebooks are in its library). Too, I can tell people, and be honest about it, that I bought it when it was 79 cents.

This is such a great deal, that I think that I'm going to take the rest of the day off.
