There many different audiences who would benefit from reading this book: Young Earth Creationists who are interested in scientific facts with which to bolster their faith and ability to defend God's Word. Those of a technical mind with an interest in geology, especially geology from a catastrophic viewpoint (Noah's Flood). And finally, anyone who believes the Earth has been PROVEN to be billions of years old by radiometric dating. Can radiometric dating be trusted on rocks when we don't know the age of the rock beforehand?

This book is the summary of 8 years of work by the group called Radioisotopes And The age of the Earth (RATE). Just one example involves Andesite samples from New Zealand known to be 25-50 years old. Radioisotope dates come back anywhere between 270,000 years for Potassium-Argon to 3.9 BILLION years for Lead-Lead dating.

Other topics covered are Carbon-14, Radiohalos, Fission tracks, Helium retention in zirzons, theories of nuclear decay, and a statistical survey of the Genesis creation account revealing whether it was written as historical, or poetry. ( )
