Darwin's theory of evolution is accepted by most educated Americans as simple fact. This easy acceptance, however, hides from us the many ways in which evolution - as an idea - shapes our thinking about a great many things. What if this idea is wrong? What if "evolution" is just a word that covers up scientific ignorance of how the wonders of the living world could have been created? Berkeley law professor Phillip Johnson looks at the evidence for Darwinistic evolution the way a lawyer would - with a cold dispassionate eye for logic and proof.

When Dr. David Hosack tilled the country's first botanical garden in the Manhattan soil more than 200 years ago, he didn't just dramatically alter the New York landscape; he left a monumental legacy of advocacy for public health and wide-ranging support for the sciences. In melodic prose, historian Victoria Johnson eloquently chronicles Hosack's tireless career to reveal the breadth of his impact. The result is a lush portrait of the man who gave voice to a new, deeply American understanding of the powers and perils of nature.

In the best-selling and critically acclaimed Darwin on Trial and Reason in the Balance, Phillip Johnson took on the academic elites and exposed the misleading claims of evolutionary naturalism.

Whenever middle-aged desert tour guide Forrest Bryant Johnson went out on his daily walks into the Mojave, all was usually peaceful and serene. But one beautiful summer day in 1987, Forrest heard a cry of distress. Following the cries, he came upon a small bobcat kitten, injured, orphaned, and desperately in need of help. So Forrest took his new feline friend home for a night.

Life didn’t begin with a roar. It began with goo. Before brains, bones, bugs, or breathing, Earth was just a soup of chemicals getting zapped by lightning until something clicked. This is the story of what happened next. From the first self-replicating molecule to the rise of humans with god complexes, From Goo to You is a ride through four billion years of biology. The true story of how atoms turned into cells, cells turned into creatures, and creatures started asking, "What even is life?"

BUILT FROM BURGERS is a clear, sharp, and wildly listenable walkthrough of how life actually works. From DNA to digestion, from cell division to consciousness. No fluff. No filler. Just the full biological blueprint of you, explained molecule by molecule. This isn’t a textbook. It’s a systems manual. Inside, you’ll learn how your body builds itself from atoms, why proteins do everything, how cells specialize, how your brain talks to your gut, and what happens when it all breaks down.

North America's biggest cat was once killed for bounty dollars, slaughtered with impunity and driven toward extinction. But today's cat of intrigue, despite our lingering fears and misconceptions, has returned to much of its native range in the western United States and gained respect as a predator integral and necessary to wild ecosystems. This turnaround was triggered by one man: Maurice Hornocker.

Charles Darwin didn’t set out to destroy the old story of life. He just couldn’t look away from the cracks in it. From the deck of the Beagle to the hills of the Galápagos, Darwin saw what others missed — tiny details, local variations, uncomfortable truths. His theory of natural selection reshaped biology, shattered theology, and sparked one of the most dangerous ideas in human history: we are not separate from nature… we are subject to it. This is the story of a quiet man who changed the world — not with force, but with focus.

The question: Where did we come from and how did we get here? will be answered in a surprising new way in this book.

For millennia plant and animal species have received little sustained attention as subjects of Christian theology and ethics in their own right. Focused on the human dilemma of sin and redemptive grace, theology has considered the doctrine of creation to be mainly an overture to the main drama of human being`s relationship to God. What value does the natural world have within the framework of religious belief?
