The Case for Divine Design

by Frank B. Salisbury

Review

"A timely contribution to the current debate." -Richad Schmutz, Ph.D., History

-Was creation an act of God, or did it occur by natural processes?
-Can science logically disprove the existance of God?
-Does the apparent design of living things point to the work of a Creator?

Author Frank B. Salisbury, retired professor of biology and plant physiology and former head of the Plant Science Department at Utah State University, answers these questions in this important book, which brings understanding and respect to the ongoing debate regarding the origin of life.

In The Case for Divine Design, the author argues that we must find God on our own and not be enticed by scientific evidence to believe or disbelieve. His own belief in God, coupled with decades of study and research that he shares in this book, has led him to appreciate the beauty of an Intelligent Creation.

"Dr. Salisbury, a devoted Christian and scientist with impeccable credentials, has analyzed the evolution controversy in this lucid and lively work. He presents a creative rationale for why life could not have occurred by chance. His conversational writing style makes this book an enjoyable reading experience." -Morris G. Cline, Ph.D., associate professor, emeritus, Department of Plant Cell and Molecular Biology, Ohio State University.
