What reviewers said of the first edition -
Alpha magazine - (Nick Mercer, London Bible College) "A tour de
force covering all that material and much more. He has certainly risen to
every challenge from both pro-evolutionists and anti-creationists. And yet
has done this in language and with concepts accessible to the intelligent
non-scientist."
Dr. A.J. Monty White "..no sooner is one salvo of scientific facts
fired against an evolutionary view..than another salvo of yet more scientific
data is launched with deadly accuracy against another dearly held
evolutionary belief. One is left wondering how any self-respecting scientist
could possibly believe in evolution after reading this book."
