| Book review: Knowing the Truth about Creation: How it Happened and What It Means for Us by Norman Geisler | Rice, S. 1991.
PSCF 43(2):121. CELD ID 13482Abstract At first we would expect that any book with a title like this one would have to be presumptuous, not because an author should not presume to know the truth, but because the whole truth about creation could not possibly be contained within a book. Most of us would feel more comfortable with an approach more like Portraits of Creation, as Van Till and others have done. However, Geisler does a good job seeking out fundamental truths about creation, something which actually can be accomplished within the confines of a small book. He partly fulfills the expectations created by the subtitle; he does a good job telling us what creation means for us, but has not clearly told us (perhaps because it cannot be done) precisely how it happened.
