“This book changed my life, seriously! It talks about how someone can have both a scientific view of the world and a strong faith. I origionally started reading this book to see if I could believe in evolution without going against my religion, and I ended up with the view of evolution as the work of God. I'm really trying to finish this book as each page has new insight, but I keep getting dragged into other books!”

Dowd redefines both Evolution via natural selection and traditional Christianity in order to achieve a marraige between the two. The result is a confusing semi-scientific/spiritual self-help guide that will likely alienate the very audience who could most benefit from it.

“An inspirational book!”
