The Biblical Basis for Modern Science [Hardcover]

Henry Madison Morris (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 1984

For decades, Henry Morris has been known as a defender of the Christian faith. It’s an auspicious title for such a humble man, yet no one can deny that the grasp Morris has on science and faith issues is staggering.

In this updated classic, Morris walks the reader through history—real history—by showing the absurdity of evolution. From a wide variety of sciences, including astronomy, biology, chemistry, physics, and geology, Morris presents clear evidence that the Bible gives us an astonishingly accurate record of the past, present, and future.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great and insightful book on the creation side of things., September 3, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Biblical Basis for Modern Science (Hardcover)

This was the first creation book I have picked up and found it very useful in weighing the evidence presented in numerous school courses. Henry Morris looks straight at the facts of science and gives his own PHILOSOPHICAL interpretation within his framework, the Bible. It's within this framework that he claims science can best be interpreted. I performed a debate in Civics with this book and found no equal for Creation Science...

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read!, August 20, 2004

This review is from: The Biblical Basis for Modern Science (Hardcover)

Henry Morris does an excellent job of explaining what those in the naturalistic community and reviewers on here that hate christianity do not want the world to know, that is true testable science does not refute the bible. Since any arguments against the one constant taught in this relativistic world that is not allowed to be debated, naturalistic evolution, are not allowed, readers must turn to sources such as this book to get the real scoop on how things possibly occured. Do not be put off by the reviewers that slam this book because of their agenda. It is an excellent read for those of a scientific mind and even those that are not highly scientific. I would wholly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Primer on the Bible-Science Relationship, June 7, 2001

This review is from: The Biblical Basis for Modern Science (Hardcover)

If you are not deeply into science or technology, don't be intimidated. This book presents an easy-to-read introduction to the relationship between the Bible and Science. Unlike the ignorant critics who would have us believe that the Bible was written by nomads, or who tell us that the Big Bang theory is fact (as if its major problems, or mainstream scientists who question or reject it, did not exist), this book sticks to scientific facts in presenting its case.
