Description: The Ice Age is one of the most difficult eras in geological history for a uniformitarian (those who believe the earth evolved by "slow processes over millions of years") scientist to explain, simply because long ages of evolution cannot explain it. Many mysterious questions about the Ice Age arise:
What would cause the summer temperatures of the northern United States and Europe to plummet over 50 degrees Fahrenheit? What was the source of the abnormal amount of moisture necessary for heavy snow? What caused the cold summer temperatures and heavy snowfall to persist for hundreds of years? Why did mammoths become extinct, not only in Siberia, but also across the earth, and at the same time as many other large mammals? How could they still have partially decayed food in their stomachs?
Author Michael Oard gives plausible explanations of the seemingly unsolvable mysteries about the Ice Age and the woolly mammoths in this intriguing new book. Many other Ice Age topics are explained including super ice age floods, ice cores, man in the ice age, and the number of ice ages.

Review Summary: Multiple Mysteries Mastered
Date: 2006-09-20
Details: Every once in a long while a book comes along which clearly and concisely explains scientific mysteries which have been swept under the proverbial rug because of the current definition of science (only naturalistic causes for the existence of everthing are allowed to be considered). Frozen in Time is such a book.
Far from ignoring the scientific data, this author uses current weather models and superb logic to show exactly how an ice age would have formed as a direct result of a worldwide flood. This solves the major long standing mystery surrounding the demise of the Woolly Mammoths. An extremely thought provoking book which should be a standard text in any college classroom on earth history - but sadly won't because it destroys the assumptions of, and evidence for, a hugely old earth.
Get this book if you'd like a glimpse at the truth.
Review Summary: Single Ice Age Theory won't stay frozen
Date: 2005-09-10
Details: In this book, young earth creationist Michael Oard (known as Mr. Ice Age) presents his one Ice Age theory (caused by the Flood). He fails to take all the effects of his theory into account, making it unworkable. He feeds his Ice Age with massive amounts of volcanics, but he does not consider that a byproduct of volcanic activity is carbon dioxide. In reality, instead of causing an Ice Age, Noah and his family would have been roasted alive.
This is just one problem of many. As is usual in young earth books, the young earth reader is supposed to accept the words of this "expert" without question. If one is willing to look beneath the surface, insurmountable problems arise.
