Creation and Change

by Douglas F. Kelly

From the back cover: In this book, Professor Douglas Kelly persuasively argues for a literal interpretation of the seven day account of creation found in Genesis chapters 1 and 2.  He assesses both the biblical details and the scientific data to show that there is a convincing case for this understanding and how it is scientifically viable.
