Description: Did you know that while in flight, the sparrow’s heart can beat up to 760 times per minute? Or that a baby blue whale grows at a rate of 3.3 kg an hour while it’s nursing, a grand total of 17 tons by the end of the nursing stage? How about that glow worms have a light output efficiency of 100%, as compared to only 4% for our incandescent bulbs? Dr. Werner Gitt, one of the foremost creationist speakers in the world, uses his scientific expertise in this book to show the unique design features of some of God’s most captivating creations. All people, young and old, layperson or expert, will be able to understand and enjoy this straightforward book. Told from the perspective of the animals being described, If Animals Could Talk clearly shows the impossibility of life without design. Dr. Gitt uses simple language to provoke a sense of wonder and awe at the marvelous design of the Creator.

Review Summary: Yet another pseudoscience spectacular.
Date: 2008-02-05
Details: The blurb about this book on this web page shows the fundamental dishonesty of creationist perspectives.
Creationist try to claim that evolution violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics. (ignoring the fact that the sun continually provides energy to the biological system)
Yet the blurb above claims, "How about that glow worms have a light output efficiency of 100%, as compared to only 4% for our incandescent bulbs?" A light output of 100% for a glowworm would itself constitute an a violation of the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
When will creationist learn, that real science is all about consistency?
Review Summary: Must-read for all Christians and a great gift to give to others!

Details: I have recommended this book to loads of my friends, and everyone was always enthusiastic about it.
No. 1: it's very interesting to read.
No. 2: it is very well researched and presents irrefutable facts of biology.
No. 3: the author believes in a Creator and challenges anyone to explain how these different facts could have been caused by evolution.
This is not "blind" faith, but rather a well thought out presentation of the Bible side of things.
If you are a Christian you will get a great blessing from reading this book, and if you are not but are willing to be challenged, read this book!
