-- Evolution

Darwin's Doubt - by Dr. Stephen Meyer. Easy to read text, yet technically competent account that is part science history and current review of the scientific literature. This text consider every avenue of evidence that might support the Darwinian macro-evolution theory, that once reviewed the prospects are bleak for Darwin's theory. And this clearly qualifies as sound footing for an argument for design.
Signature In The Cell - by Dr. Stephen Meyer. Easy to read text the weave science history into a text that builds toward a logical conclusion that information in DNA is highly specified and clearly qualifies as evidence for design.
Evolution: Still A Theory in Crisis. 1985. Michael Denton, M.D. updates his origianl text to note how evolution is a theory that still has significant problems. Reading both of these books points to the vital need to explore beyond Darwin's original notion of life's origin! If Darwin were alive today he would agree based on current scientific data.

-- Intelligent Design

Designed to the Core - The assumption the universe offers a multitude of places for advanced life is soberly addressed in his book with science and detailed assessment that instead points to our earth in a unique location like possibly no other in the known universe!
God and Galileo- The authors assess what we can appreciate from 'The Book of Nature.' what the Scriptures reveal, and how Galileo challenged the theological interpretations with the accuracy of science of his day. And this leads to further consideration of Science plus Faith today.
Canceled Science- Students being given an opportunity to attend an open ended class discussion learn how knowledge we can grasp points to a fine tuned universe and design. While meeting resistance, this book takes an objective view.
Return of the God Hypothesis - Science plus theological perspectives drawn together in one place make for a comprehensive overview. When read as a whole design and understanding life all come into one unified accord! Highly recommended for all!
