DALLAS, April 29 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Dallas-based Institute for Creation Research announces the release of a new study by Dr. John Morris titled "The Fossil Record: Unearthing Nature's History of Life". Dr. Morris, president of the 40-year-old science institute, uncovers the facts -- and fiction -- about recent discoveries of dinosaur fossils, some with blood tissue still attached, and alleged human fossils, such as Ardipithecus ramidus, a.k.a. Ardi. The Fossil Record presents both scientific and biblical data that help readers make sense of these highly sensationalized discoveries in light of Scripture.

Topics in the new study include the Nature of the Fossil Record, Fossils of the Earliest Life, Origin of the Invertebrates, Invertebrates to Vertebrates, the First Land Animals, and others. More detailed information can be found at ICR's Fossil Record site. ICR zoologist and co-author Frank Sherwin contributed an analysis of alleged transitional fossils commonly offered by evolutionists as proof of macro-evolution.

The Institute for Creation Research, founded in 1970 by Dr. Henry Morris, is the leading creation science institute, conducting field and laboratory research in geology, genetics, and other origins studies, as well as providing graduate-level education in science education, apologetics, and worldview studies.
