Summary: This Book Started the Modern Scientific Creationist Movement
Comment: A classic! Friends and foes of Biblical truth both agree that this seminal book was largely responsible for triggering the modern revival of interest in creationism.

Even though most of its scientific content has been superceded by more recent creation science, it still provides a useful framework for understanding Flood Geology. The theological portion of this book is invaluable for showing the incorrectness of compromising evangelicals who try to twist Scripture to make it fit a local flood instead of the indisputably global Noachian Deluge. A must read!

Rating: 2
Summary: Book is totally out of date
Comment: We now have DNA studies that show that all mammals (including humans) are related each other. This book (trying to prove all mammals aren't related to each other, in sections of the book) may have held up well in the 60's and 70's and even 80's but now it's totally worthless.

Summary: Are you a passive "thinkers" or explorer?
Comment: This book is a classic all right. A classic example of the fundamentalist effort to deny the integrity of truly scientific methodologies. Science is a tool that is truly religion neutral and, in it self, provides NO insight as to the nature of god. The misuse of scientific quotes that characterizes the writing of Creationists (especially Morris) is a classic political tool that can be fundamentally misleading to any reader who is looking for a self-contained text "with all the answers". If you think something in this book is significant, get out to your local library and do some real probing research on the subject. I Guarantee that in every case the creationist interpretation given in this old chestnut can be refuted rigorously. Science does not try to prove the absolute truth. It exists to explore the options for explaining any given phenomenon. When the most consistent answer is found, then that becomes the principle that is established. But science evolves - witness Newton to Einstein to string theory. The authors of this book use exactly the opposite approach. They start with an absolute truth - as they believe it to exist - and try to find any 'science' that makes their interpretation viable. They fail totally to seek the consistency necessary for their ideas to be acceptable. As a reader ask yourself the question: Which method of looking at the world gave us motor cars, space craft, telephones, antibiotics, whiter than white detergents, the recognition of various diseases, samples of the Moon, an understanding of the universe that can examined critically by anyone whether they believe or not. Then ask yourself which world view expects you to believe in an unprovable argument and then asks that you believe the interpretations of that argument based on untestable evidence that is not provided.
