Description

Understand the universe, it’s structure and how it operates, from a 7-day creationist perspective with this well-written supplemental science text from Master Books. Beginning with ancient theories and discoveries, this book explains current understandings of cosmology, the Big Bang theory including credible misconceptions and problems with the Big Bang, the Steady State Model and the Plasma Universe theories, and Biblically based theories on the universe. A summary and recommendations for further research for creation astronomists is also included. An appendix digs deeper into observational astronomy and how it has helped our understanding of astronomy. Chapters include a few helpful, black and white diagrams and illustrations, as well as numerous examples and analogies to explain complex concepts. Chapters end with review questions, with answers in the back of the book. An excellent supplement for any science curriculum. This is also a suggested supplement to Dr. Wile’s Discovering Design with Biology.

Publisher's Description of Universe by Design

The universe was created with purpose and reason; and modern science with all of its experiments, exploration, and sophistication has never proven otherwise. In fact, as author Dr. Danny Faulkner makes plain, advanced science argues more for a created cosmology than a big bang. Written for the upper-level student through the well-read layman, Universe by Design explores the universe, explaining its origins and discussing the historical development of cosmology from a creationist viewpoint.


Suggested by Dr. Wile for science-oriented students, these supplemental books offer more depth for interested students. Resources are completely optional and do not replace the textbook content.
