Overview

Have humans descended from apes, or was man specially created? Do humans have unique characteristics and abilities that set them apart from animals? How you answer these crucial questions determines whether you think of man as an animal or a special spiritual being. This book demonstrates that there is overwhelming evidence that man has a creator. Author and design expert Stuart Burgess explains similarities and differences between humans and apes, describes the unique characteristics and beauty of human beings, marshals archaeological and fossil evidence in favor of intelligent design, and underscores the importance and relevance of the origins debate. This updated edition includes full color illustrations, ample diagrams and charts, and a fully-revised text.

    This is a little confusing. The description and sample pages match a wonderful 2003 book by Stuart Burgess "The Origin of Man: The Image of an Ape or the Image of God?" which I have in Logos 5. Is this a revised version? I highly recommend Stuart Burgess.
