The Bible, Rocks and Time

Davis A. Young and Ralph F. Stearley

There is an interesting overview of the experience of Davis Young on p277 of The Creationists by Ronald Numbers. This book, published in 2008, follows an outline similar to his smaller 1982 book "Christianity and the Age of the Earth". At the time of this writing, Young is Professor Emeritus at Calvin College, and Ralph Stearley is Professor of Geology and Chair of the Geology Department.
