Evolution: The Grand Experiment Vol. 1
Dr. Carl Werner
Darwin’s book on evolution admitted that “intermediate links” were “perhaps the most obvious and serious objection to the theory” of evolution. Darwin recognized that the fossils collected by scientists prior to 1859 did not correspond with his theory of evolution, but he predicted that his theory would be confirmed as more and more fossils were found. One hundred and fifty years later, Evolution: The Grand Experiment examines the viability of Darwin’s theory.
Fact or Fiction ~ Truth or Myth. It’s not always easy to determine what is truth, what is partial truth, and what is flat out wrong. Sadly, when lies and theories are spoken of often enough, people start to believe they are true – even after they have been proven wrong. This is exactly what has taken place with the theory of evolution.
In Evolution: The Grand Experiment, Dr. Werner takes readers through a step-by-step analysis of Darwin’s theories. Through careful analysis, readers will see how many of the theories upon which Darwin based is writings/theories have been proven false by science over the years. Yet, many of these false theories are still quoted by those who believe in evolution today. While top scientists may no longer believe in certain aspects of Darwin’s theories, these theories are still be quoted in textbooks today even though they are false.
When the book arrived, I started looking over the various, full-color, beautiful illustrations throughout the high-quality, heavy-weight glossy pages of the book. I only was able to read a chapter or two prior to Munchkin claiming the book as her own. While meant to be a textbook, Munchkin chose to read it as a regular book. She was fascinated by everything within the pages of the book. Every now and then, she would come running to tell D and I what she was learning about in her reading.
If you want to use this in a classroom (homeschool) setting, you can purchase the Teacher’s Manual, the Presentation CD, and the DVD to supplement the Evolution: The Grand Design text. Whether you decide to use this as a textbook in the classroom or just read it, you will come away with a better understanding of Darwin and his theory of evolution. Through a careful analysis of the theories, you will see the inaccuracies of evolution being revealed through science.
