After the indictment, DeLorean, a former General Motors executive who was once in the auto industry's fast lane, brushed off questions from reporters | outside his Manhattan apartment with a brusque "Read the book. It's all in the book." He was referring to DeLorean (Zondervan; $17.95), his new autobiography. In it, he denies the charges raised in Detroit. Writes DeLorean: "When all the documents and facts are presented, I expect to be fully vindicated...
...International Version (1978, Zondervan, 3 million sold, $10.95). Last year the N.I.V. rivaled the King James in sales, and it may be the Bible that finally breaks the King James' hold on Evangelical and Fundamentalist Bible buyers. This edition came about as a direct result of right-wing dissatisfaction with the Revised Standard Version. One hundred conservative scholars were assembled for the job; naturally they quickly restored the "virgin" to Isaiah 7:14 and followed other orthodox readings.

...Tappan, N.J., one of the many successful publishers fervently committed to Evangelicalism, took a gamble on Morgan, but it is marketing a predictable bestseller in Charles Colson's up-from-Wa-tergate saga Born Again (both authors made strategic appearances at the Atlantic City convention).

Harold Lindsell, 62, editor of Christianity Today (circ. 118,000), the movement's most influential journal. True Evangelicals must believe that the Bible is completely error-proof or "inerrant," writes Lindsell, not only on doctrine and morals but on every detail of history and science. U.S. Evangelicalism, he warns, is being dangerously...
...Zondervan Publishing House, a Michigan firm that puts out probably more varieties and styles of Bibles than any other U.S. publisher, reports sales of all editions this year are five times as great as they were four years ago. Zondervan's Robert Bolinder thinks he knows why: "Our product has the answers...
