Voted one of Christianity Today's 1997 Books of the Year Creation
versus evolution. The debate is growing louder and hotter--whether
in lecture halls or in between the pages of bestselling books. But
neither side seems to be winning. Why? In The Battle of Beginnings
Del Ratzsch examines the history of the debate and critiques the
entrenched positions that he argues merely impede progress toward
the truth. Dissatisfied with both creationist fallacies and
materialist misconstruals, he seeks to lay the groundwork for more
fruitful dialogue. In considerable detail Ratzsch looks at the
history and development of Darwin's theory and common creationist
misunderstandings of evolution. He then moves on to examine the
history and development of creationist theory and pervasive
evolutionist misunderstandings of it. He also discusses the nature
of science and common creationist and evolutionist abuses as a
prelude to showing why both sides have remained critical of
theistic evolution. Above all, Ratzsch argues that until
philosophical confusion, logical missteps and various other snarls
have been untangled, little real progress can be made in sorting
out competing theories of life and its origin. With this book he
challenges and equips all of us to think more clearly.
