Summary: Is Scientifically Valid and True to Scripture
Comment: This book is packed with worthwhile information. I am amused by the rationalists who denigrate it. To begin with, anyone with even the most cursory familiarity with the Bible knows that it does not teach an old earth but teaches a young earth. For example, Jesus Christ said that, from the beginning, God had created humans male and female. This only makes sense if the earth is young: If the earth is old, then humans only appeared recently relative to the 4.5 billion years' age of the earth. And far from distorting science, as that reviewer Merde says, the book is scrupulous in staying close to valid scientific facts. Finally, it is compromises with evolution that are a shame to Christianity, not the works of those who uphold the truth of Scripture and of true scientific information.

Summary: A Good Book vs. The Frightful Ignorance of its Critics
Comment: This book provides a wealth of information relevant to basic questions about science, the Bible, the imagined fact of organic evolution, etc. Some of the negative reactions against it tell us far more about the abysmal ignorance of its critics than they tell us about this book. Thus, neither Ken Ham nor any of the AIG leaders is a Seventh-Day Adventist, nor is this book patterned after Adventist theology. I have yet to see a single reference to Ellen White in any AIG publication! Furthermore, the young-earth Creation-Flood view espoused by this book was in fact the mainstream Christian view in past centuries, not some sort of recent aberration of theology. The notions about a literal Biblical reading requiring acceptance of a metal-domed sky and a flat earth are totally ludicrous. Such notions are not required by the Hebrew text at all, but were dreamed up by 19th-century rationalists bent on discrediting the Bible. Nor can scientific issues be avoided in favor of ones dealing with morality, etc. Jesus Christ taught that if we cannot believe Him when He speaks of earthly things, how can we believe Him when He speaks of heavenly things. This book gives us a balanced introduction to both.

Summary: funny and clever
Comment: This book is funny and clever.
It is funny because of some of the very basic errors in logic. For example, "The moon is moving away from the earth at a speed of 4cm a year, therefore it can't be more than x years old, even if it had started off touching the earth."
It is clever because it puts enough actual science in, that readers without a science background might be lulled by the genuine science and not notice the glaring errors and logical fallacies.
I advise everyone to read this. It is an excellent introduction to the rhetorical devices used by some to attempt to fool others. It would be good material for a class in logic. "Find 10 errors in this chapter. Bonus marks for any ad hominen arguments found."
