Book Description:Many in our modern society believe that science has disproved the Bible. Instead of believing in God, many place their faith in evolution. Although both evolution and creation ultimately are positions of faith and cannot be scientifically proved or disproved, the scientific evidences from various fields of modern science (e.g. genetics, paleontology, thermodynamics, etc.) better support faith in creation rather than faith in chance or evolution. Basically, evolution in nature is only possible within species but not across species as Darwin had predicted. "Origins?" asks and answers a series of penetrating questions:
Are there natural and genetic limits to biological change and variation in nature?
Is evolution consistent with other major scientific principles?
Do comparative similarities in DNA between species prove that all living things share a common evolutionary and biological ancestry?
Has science proved that life can come into existence from non-living matter?
What does the fossil record really prove?
Is nature capable of performing genetic engineering?
Do all scientists believe in evolution?
Instead of easily accepting the explanations of evolution the reader will be challenged with the logical and scientific case for creation. Modern society can once again have reason to place its faith in God, the Creator.
About the Author: The author, B.G. Ranganathan (pronounced "Ranga-nathan") was born in Madras, India, and at a young age emigrated with his family to the United States. Mr. Ranganathan was raised in a traditional Hindu family but during his early teenage years he recognized his need for salvation and received the Lord Jesus Christ into his heart as his personal Lord and Savior. He received his B.A. with academic concentrations in theology and biology and has given lectures and seminars to science faculty and students at various secular colleges and universities on the scientific merits of creation vs. evolution. As a science and religion writer Mr. Ranganathan has been recognized in the 24th edition of Marquis' Who's Who In The East.
Another interesting new book is on the author of the book Darwin on Trial (1991), Philip Johnson (a Cal Berkeley legal scholar). This new book Darwin's Nemesis (IVP) is edited by William Dembski.
Synopsis from the publisher:
With the publication of Darwin on Trial in 1991, Cal Berkeley legal scholar Phillip Johnson became the leading figure in the intelligent design movement. Exposing and calling into question the philosophical foundations of Darwinism, Johnson led the charge against this largely unquestioned philosophy of materialistic reductionism and its purported basis in scientific research.
This book reviews and celebrates the life and thought of Phillip Johnson and the movement for which he has served as chief architect. Editors William A. Dembski and Jed C. Macosko present eighteen essays by those who have known and worked with Phil for more than a decade. They provide personal and in-depth insight into the man, his convictions and his leadership of the intellectual movement that called into question the hegemony of Darwinian theory.Other books on this issue include:
1) Michael Denton. Evolution: A Theory in Crisis (Bethesada, MD: Adler & Adler, 1985). This is a must-read!
2) Thaxton, W. Bradley, & R. Olsen. The Mystery of Life's Origin. (New York: Philosophical Library, 1984).
3) Del Ratssch. The Battle of Beginnings. (IVP, 1996)
4) Philip Johnson. Defeating Darwinism-Opening Minds. (IVP, 1997). A good book for beginners.
