In this expanded 8th edition, evidence that revolutionizes our understanding of origins is carefully explained. Part I discusses, in quick overview, 131 categories of evidence from biology, astronomy, earth science, and the physical sciences. Part II describes the hydroplate theory, developed during 35 years of study and research by Walt Brown. This theory explains a catastrophic event in Earth's history and solves a host of recognized problems. Some chapters in Part II deal with: the origin of the Grand Canyon, evidence that shows comets, asteroids, and meteoroids came from Earth. the sudden freezing and burial of the frozen mammoths, if there was a global flood, where the water came from and where it went, and how mountain ranges, volcanoes, submarine canyons, ocean trenches, and coal and oil deposits were formed. Thirty-seven other frequently asked questions fill a fascinating Part III of Brown's book. A few of those questions are: Is global warming occurring? If so, what causes it? Have scientific tools detected genetic traces of Adam and Eve within us? How accurate is radiocarbon dating? What about the dinosaurs? What hydroplate theory predictions have been confirmed? Is evolution compatible with the Bible?… (més)

I've always considered the Young Earth position rather retarded, though I never really took the time to read up on it. Then somewhere I read that this was the best introduction to The Young Earth Theory, so I gave it a shot and found myself more intrigued than I thought I'd be.

Quite a lot of the discussion is too technical for me (geology, the hydroplate theory etc) but overall I really enjoyed the read. The book's beautifully illustrated with lots of pictures and diagrams and quotes from mainstream scientists to support the author's claims. I can't say I'm convinced, but I don't believe Young Earth Creationists necessarily are as stupid and deranged as I thought (or perhaps I'm stupid and deranged myself!). If you enjoy reading about alternative history (regardless of its merits) you should definitely give this book a try. ( )
