Essay / Research Paper Abstract
An 18 page paper that consists of three separate 6 page book reviews. The first review refers to L. Russ Bush's The Advancement, which offers a Christian apologetic that defends the biblical account of creation against the position of Darwinian naturalism. The second book review addresses Norman Geisler and Ron Brooks' text When Skeptics Ask, which offers an apologetic that is useful to all Christians in defending their faith, as the objections that unbelievers raise regarding Christian dogma are frequently quite perceptive and cut to the heart of Christianity's basic principles. The final book review examines L. Russ Bush and Tom J. Nettles' Baptists and the Bible, which offers a comprehensive history of the Baptist church and its attitudes toward the doctrine of inerrancy and infallibility of the Bible. In each case, the writer summarizes every chapter in each book. No additional sources cited.

(Satan) and good (God) and how this understanding of humanity gave way to the humanism of the Renaissance the idea that humanity was progressing through its use of its rational
faculty, rather than as a "gift" from God (Bush 14). Chapter 2 : The Rise of Advancement Science : Beginning with the contributions to science of Copernicus, Bush relates
a thumbnail description of the rise of modern science beginning in the sixteenth century. This discussion offers insight into this history of which many readers are probably unaware, such as
the authors assertion that the "scientific revolution which developed in the sixteenth century rested on a Christian foundation (Bush 19). The author draws parallels between the Christian view of
the natural world as stable and the cause-and-effect rationality of science. This perception evolved, however, into a naturalist or materialistic orientation in the eighteen and nineteenth centuries, leading to the
