Living Fossils by Dr. Carl Werner

Living Fossils by Dr. Carl Werner

This is the second volume of the series Evolution, the Grand Experiment.

From the Publisher:

In 1938, the discovery of a large, unusual fish turned the scientific community on end. Dubbed a “living fossil,” the discovery of a coelacanth in South Africa shocked scientists around the world who thought this type of fish had died out millions of years prior during the process of evolution. Today, living fossils are organisms preserved in the fossil record that still exist in similar form today. Their existence challenges the core concepts of evolution and create a fascinating debate among scholars. Do they indicate a younger earth than some have thought, placing the millions-of-years evolutionary timeline into question? Or do living fossils represent a deep mystery? Living Fossils, Vol. 2, Evolution: the Grand Experiment delves into these provocative questions. Includes 700 color images presented in an easy-to-read format. Ideal as a standalone study unit for schools and homeschoolers or easily integrated into existing curricula.

Evolution the Grand Experiment-DVD by Dr. Carl Werner

From the Publisher
Filmed in 3 continents and seven countries over a 12-year period, the DVD series has highlights from 12 dig sites, 60 museums, and many universities. Narrated by Andres Williams of London, this Hollywood-style production has a feel of a television documentary. This first episode coincides with Volume 1 of Evolution: The Grand Experiment, and is designed to be viewed by a general audience or in the classroom to supplement the teacher’s manual. This episode documents many misleading museum displays, science magazine articles, and television documentaries including “dinosaurs with feathers,” “walking whales,” “flying dinosaurs.” Bonus materials include an interview with author Dr. Carl Werner and a discussion on flying reptiles (Pterosaurs).

Evolution, the Grand Experiment by Dr. Carl Werner

Evolution the Grand Experiment by Dr. Carl Werner

From the Publisher:
A BOOK THAT CHALLENGES YOUR VIEWS AND DEMANDS A VERDICT.”

If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. -Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species

Darwin’s book on evolution admitted that “intermediate links” were “perhaps the most obvious and serious objection to the theory” of evolution. Darwin recognized that the fossils collected by scientists prior to 1859 did not correspond with his theory of evolution, but he predicted that his theory would be confirmed as more and more fossils were found. One hundred and fifty years later, Evolution: The Grand Experiment critically examines the viability of Darwin’s theory.

Evolution, the Grand Experiment Volumes I and II by Dr. Carl Werner

 

I taught this class in our homeschool co-op using the first volume of this series.  This book is beautifully illustrated, and so filled with information.  My daughter, Beth, and her friends really enjoyed the class, especially the discussions about evolution and the obvious fallacies of evolution that are taught as theory instead of as belief.  We learned quite a bit.  The DVD that accompanies the series is excellent.  Living Fossils, the second volume of the series, continues with the facts and information about evolution again using beautiful illustrations and interesting writing.  This is an excellent series to study if you really want to understand about evolution and truth!
