Why did I pull Let Us Prey from publication last summer? I tend to overexplain, which is something I just did but I will spare you from it. I wrote a full single-spaced page, which I just deleted.

The answer is simple and straightforward. My coauthor admitted that he had altered the categories in the scoring mechanism to say what he thought it should say. By that simple action he invalidated almost two years of research and dissolved the basis for his doctoral dissertation and forced me to contact the publisher and have the book pulled from publication immediately.

I was accused by some of research fraud but that disappeared when my coauthor sent out a letter clearly stating that I had no knowledge of what he did and did not participate in the deception in any way. 

So, here we are. The revised edition is in print. It has been thoroughly vetted for accuracy based on published research and my experiences in working with churches that had a narcissist in the pulpit.
