Few issues engender so much heat between Christians as the relationship between creation and evolution. Questions such as 'what do you think about Adam and Eve?' or 'what about death before the Fall?' lead all too quickly to entrenched positions. Reasonable, calm, and supremely well informed, this is a book written by someone who is passionate about both science and the Bible. 'I hope,' says Denis Alexander, 'that reading it will encourage you to believe, as I do, that the 'Book of God's Word' and the 'Book of God's Works' can be held firmly together in harmony.'
