Creation [Guides to Theology]

A volume from the Guides to Theology series, David Fergusson's Creation offers an informed guide to the theology of creation in the Bible, through church history, and for today, exploring anew the theme of creation in Scripture, tradition, and contemporary theology. Fergusson defends the classical account of creation out of nothing but pays more sustained attention than the Christian tradition typically has given to the holistic significance of the created world.

Offering both doctrinal exposition and apologetic argument, Fergusson discusses creation in relation to the problem of evil and the fall, divine providence, deism, Darwinian evolution, environmental ethics, animal rights, and more, even touching on the topic of extraterrestrial intelligence.
