Chemistry: Precision and Design explores the many branches of chemistry to discover the ingenious<br />
structure and orderly function of God’s creation. The Christian perspective of this text rejects evolution<br />
and recognizes special creation as the reasonable explanation for the origin and design of the universe.<br />
Although chemistry has been less permeated by evolutionary doctrine than biology or geology, one’s view<br />
of origins does affect how he approaches the science of chemistry and how he applies chemical principles<br />
to societal issues.<br />
Chemistry: Precision and Design recognizes God’s command for man to have dominion over the creation,<br />
and its goal is to teach how man might extend his “dominion” and make wiser use of the physical<br />
creation. This text presents chemistry as a foundational science and includes chapters on nuclear and<br />
organic chemistry. It seeks not only to give students a solid basis in chemical principles, but also to help<br />
students understand the practical application of these principles.<br />
