A mechanism for the imagination

This is one of the best books I have found, besides The Bible, to justify belief that the entire earth was once a semi-tropical paradise, created in perfect balance to support life. "The Waters Above" (vapor canopy theory) provides the scientific mechanism which would validate the literal interpretation of Genesis, and the explanation for the abundant fossil evidence that argues for a once-universal climate. For those readers who might imagine what the pre-flood earth was like for the early patriarchs living at that time, the novel, The Ninth Generation, provides a further perspective.The Ninth Generation: Conquering the Giants

Fascinating Commentary on The Genesis Flood

I have enjoyed this book as a reference for many years. Although some technical portions require a cetain academic background; the book overall conveys, to any interested reader, a clear sense of events at the time of the flood. The movie, "The Day After Tomorrow" picks up on some of the phenomena detailed in the book, particularly the quick freeze process; and shows an "exhibit" of the Beresovka mammoth, the death of which is described extensively in the book. The implications of the method of death, and it's results are fascinating. The Bible is a master of understatement; this book gives a vivid impression of the hugh forces at work during the flood. If one has a more than passing interest in the flood, this book is an excellent resource. I have always found it to be a valuable addition to my library, and recommend it highly.

Fruitful Work of Theologian-Physicist

The vapor canopy model of the flood is truly one to be reckoned with. Here, scientists of various disciplines engage in scientific speculation whether this model would be possible. From meterologist to hydrologist to engineer, the evidence in most cases stacks up well with the scientific evidence that we now see and explore.Rather than write this off as religion, these are credible scientists who continue the work of Morris and his book "The Genesis Flood." Any such look into the ancient earth is speculative at best, but here the evidence presented gives credence to the biblical account of Noah's Flood. Worthy of finding and reading, even if you have to skip the weighty mathematical sections.

this book can be bought from "Creation Research Foundation"

This is an incredible book from a known author who writes about the flood of Noah. It is one of the most comprehensive books I've ever read which refutes the theory of evolution as taught in our schools. The book has many "physics" charts to go along with all that has been discovered concerning a universal flood. After reading this book, there is left little doubt that the flood was real, that it was universal, and that there is a God who orchestrated it all. The section of the "wooly mammoths" is incredible. It is a thick book, a textbook, but underlining helps.
