Michael E. Thomas: This is extremely thorough as much as it can be for a paperback targeted at an average reader. But with extensive references, you may research deeper if you desire.
I have seen no flaws in the arguments advocating intelligent design. I just finished the book for the first time and will absolutely dive into it again. I wish I could absorb the content to the extent that I could adequately discuss the topics with others.

Aj: Some books go too deep, some books too shallow. Lee Strobel traveled, interviewed, asked questions that I wanted to ask to the contemporary experts in various scientific subjects. For that, I am grateful for his work. I am now closer to the people who speak out for the intelligent design. My faith grows firmer even when I have a doubtful emotion as any person's life. The earth is insignificant in it's size to the universe, but it has the purpose of the whole universe. Wow. And I am living on it cause God designed for me to live on it as well as find who He is.

thomas: Lee strobels 'sequel' to case for christ. If you have read the case for christ the style is similar. Taking on the most difficult concepts and topics but putting them in an essay to read fashion within a story like set of interviews.
In this book he tackles the touch topics of creation and the creator. Touching on the origin of the world on simple easy to understand terms. Tough topics on physics and philosophy together. For example the multiverse theory explored, the big bag and how this all fits in the Christian faith.
Lee strobel is a fantastic author and would encourge anyone, Christian or non Christian to pick up his books and read the thoughts and facts.
A must read for anyone

Amazon Customer: Lee Strobel uses the same approach here as he did in Case for Christ. In The Case for a Creator Strobel gathers scientific evidence and arguments supporting the hypothesis that God created the universe and "fine-tuned" conditions to render a fertile, nourishing and ideal enough climate to give rise to life on Earth.
The book is divided into chapters, each presenting Strobel's interviews with different scientists. Each scientist represents a field of science in which recent and current discoveries seem to support the hypothesis that the origin of life was designed and brought into being by a creator: cosmology, physics, astronomy, biochemistry, microbiology, cognitive science.
The selected scientists are all pro intelligent design and, at times, one wonders if the whole investigation is a little biased with favour towards the intelligent design theory.
Generally the evidence and findings they discuss logically suggest that life and its origin were designed and made possible by a creator, although some of their arguments seem stretched. For example, an interviewee argues that the complexity of molecular "micromachines" and the idea that it is an "irreducibly...

George Jones: The subtitle of this book is: A Journalist Investigates Scientific Evidence That Points Toward God. Lee Strobel writes about his interviews with leading scientists in several science disciplines; cosmology, physics, astronomy, biochemistry and biology. He finishes with an interview with J. P. Moreland, who received a degree in chemistry, and was awarded the top fellowship for a doctorate in nuclear chemistry at the University of Colorado, but declined the honor to pursue a different career path. He then earned a master's degree in theology at Dallas Theological Seminary and a doctorate in philosophy at the University of Southern California. Strobel interviews him regarding the consciousness of the mind and how the brain and the mind work together.
The book also looks at the problems with Darwinism in the light of the advances made in the last 2 decades in the studies of the sciences
mentioned above. Just the explanation of how the cell is composed absolutely boggled my mind! Strobel interviews the scientists about the "big bang" and the Cambrian explosion, all in incredible, scientific detail that points toward a Creator. It became clear to me that the only option for...

Bret James Stewart: This is a great book. Strobel provides scientific evidence for Intelligent Design. The book is laid out well. It begins with evidence refuting Darwinian evolution and naturalism, showing how and why what we were taught in school was wrong. And he does so from a scientific standpoint. In my opinion, Darwinian evolution is fundamentally and obviously flawed so that most people with an open mind would refute it. For those who aren't sure, Strobel provides the answers in his chapter, "Doubts about Darwinism."
The book then shows why Design is the best scientific option. Strobel includes chapters on cosmology, physics, astronomy, bio-chemistry, biology, consciousness, so the evidence is well-rounded and from a broad spectrum of sources. The book ends with a cumulative look at all of these factors and what the data imply.
This book is a must for those interested in the evolution vs. Design debate. Folks who have a high regard for science should definitely check it out. People who are interested in the intersection of faith and science should also read it. Even those who are not particularly interested in science for its own sake should read it if they think they will...
