Origins and Redemption by Dr. Francis Humphrey hits the "sweet spot" for books discussing the creation versus evolution issue. Dr. Humphrey has written a book that is broad and deep - but not too deep. Deep enough that the scientific credibility of the Genesis account of creation as plainly read is clearly established and the implausibility of the evolutionary account is equally clearly established but not so deep as to be inaccessible to the average reader. Dr. Humphrey discusses the creation-evolution issue across a wide range of scientific disciplines and does not shy away from the issues that are difficult for creationists.
