How the secret of the Bible's best story formed geology: a MacArthur Fellow reveals a surprising point of view on Noah's Flood. In Tibet, geologist David R. Montgomery observed a local account about a great overflow that bore a dazzling similarity to Noah's Flood. Intrigued, Montgomery commenced investigating theworld's overflow reports and - pulling from historic works by theologians, natural philosophers, and researchers - learned the counterintuitive role Noah's Flood played in the development of both geology and creationism. Steno, the grandfather of geology, even invoked the Flood in laying geology's foundingprinciples based on his observations of north Italian landscapes. Generations later, the founders of modern creationism founded their irrational view of a global flood on a perceptive critique of geology. With an explorer's vision and a stimulating approach to both beliefs and knowledge, Montgomery takes viewers on a journey across panoramas and cultures. Along the way we discover the illusive aspect of fact, whether seen through the lens of knowledge or religious beliefs, andh ow it changed through history and remains changing, even today.
