Summary: One of the best non-technical overviews available
Review: Why is it that the world of science has made such an about-face with the idea that the universe has an intelligent designer? At one time in the very recent past anyone supporting the idea of a Creator of the universe would have been ridiculed in the scientific community. These days they seem to be in the majority with more and more converts every year. In his book "The Case for a Creator" author Lee Strobel goes over the evidence that is causing such a shift in thinking. In a very easy to read interview writing style he discusses evolution, Darwinism, science and faith, the big bang theory of cosmology, physics, astronomy and probability, biochemistry, DNA, and consciousness. For each one of these subjects he delivers an interview with a top scientist who is a specialist in that particular field of knowledge. Here is your chance to listen in as Lee quizzes them on their reasoning and theories. Listen in as he asks the difficult questions and receives soundly reasoned answers. While these are recognized experts in their fields it should be noted that they were, of course, hand picked because they believe in a creator. As a result the book is basically an opportunity for them to espouse their views and give answers to common objections. Still, hand picked or not, the important thing is that they provide soundly reasoned, realistic answers to the questions and problems posed. If you received an education on evolution in school then you owe it to yourself to at least be fair and learn the other side of the coin. If you have come to doubt a creator for whatever reason and have been taught that science has no room for a creator then you owe it to yourself to see why top scientists are moving over to the creation camp. At least you will find that there are two sides to this debate and it is not a closed question coming down on the side of no creator. "The Case for a Creator" is a highly recommended read on one of the most enjoyable books on the subject that I have read.

Summary: Wow
Review: Wow, I was really a skeptic of religion and creation until I read this book. It was fascinating how Lee would start a chapter -- I would be nodding my head - yes yes! Thats what happened - not religion! Then, he would totally destroy that concept and prove how God actually was involved. Skeptic turned believer. good job.
