The book Creation, Fall, and Redemption (published by Redemptivebooks Publishing) by Iloilo-based alumnus Atty. Edwin R. Catacutan (HS ’72 & AB Pol Sci ’76) has penetrated the world market via online marketing. The hard copy version is also available for purchase online. The book proposes that there are only three significant events in the universe between God and man. They are: creation, fall and redemption. Contrary to a popular maxim, it can rightly be judged by its cover. The book is written in such a way that readers easily understand its theological propositions. The author can be contacted at this e-mail address: creationfallredemption@yahoo.com.
