Walt Brown IN THE BEGINNING 8th Ed.

Having just attended the three day "The Beginning and End of the Universe" conference here in town I am keen to read some more creation books. Fortuitously the very next book on the HMTP is Russ Humphrey's STARLIGHT AND TIME.

On a related note, Keith informs me that Walt Brown is coming out with a new revision of his creation compendium IN THE BEGINNING. The old 7th edition was 328 pages long. The new 8th edition now runs to 456 pages; 39% longer! This looks to me to be a revision worth reading. I plan to do so on my own. The group should consider doing the same. It is due to be released in August, 2008, and will sell for $29.95 on Amazon. Walt Brown's own site does not yet list the 8th edition for sale.

08/05/08 Update:
1) The CBD (ChristianBook.com) site shows that the 8th edition will be released on 10/22/08. Their price is $24.99.
2) Strangely, Amazon has changed their site to read that, instead of being "to-be-released," this book is "out of print."
3) Walt Brown's own site still does not offer the 8th edition for sale.

08/06/08 Update:
1) I received a reply from Walt Brown's CSC web-site:
Thanks for your email. We expect the 8th edition will be here in
October or November. I suggest you check our web site,
www.creationscience.com in October to see if you can order the book then. The 8th edition will have 120 more pages of material than is in
the 7th edition. It will retail for $29.95; shipping and handling will
be $5.00.
