There was a beginning of the universe, which requires an explanation beyond itself. The exquisite fine-tuning of the physical laws necessary for life has all the hallmarks of design. Paleontology and biology show unmistakable signs of an intelligence behind life. Consciousness and free-will, inexplicable in purely physical terms, point to something beyond the material. The philosophy of beauty and morality leads us to an author of both. He argues that the universe is 'open'-not simply the interaction of matter and energy, but a realm where miracles can happen. The evidence for the greatest miracle in history, the resurrection of Jesus, is carefully presented.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Others Say About This Book: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on contemporary philosophy and science, Dr. Latham has written an accessible and lively introduction to a wide range of reasons for diagnosing the Universe as God's creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-\u003cstrong\u003ePeter S.
