Astronomy, space & time
Hardcover. Many scientists look at the universe and conclude we are here by chance. The astronomer and historian Owen Gingerich looks at the same evidence--and the fact that the universe is comprehensible to our minds--and sees it as proof for the intentions of a Creator-God. The more rigorous science becomes, the more clearly God's handiwork can be understood. Num Pages: 158 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HRAM3; PDA; PDX; PGK; PH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 190 x 115 x 18. Weight in Grams: 248.
