Summary
Settled Science is a detailed description of the very long journey from the Big Bang and the formation of the Universe, to the evolution of man and his imaginary supernatural worlds. The book provides non-scientists with understandable scientific answers to questions almost everyone ponders: How did the Universe form, and from what? How did life on Earth begin and change over time? How did humans evolve, and how and why did we invent religion? Many books and articles have been published on the topic of evolution, but the information is often so highly technical and difficult to understand that lay people have given up trying. Glidewell’s account of “Creation” and each step along the evolutionary path to man is explained simply and clearly. Many of the arguments that critics of the theory of evolution offer are also thoroughly discussed and rebutted in the book. Readers will enjoy fascinating discussions of the following topics, among others. 1. Why are Asians considered more intelligent than other cultures? 2. Should Intelligent Design theories be taught in the science classes of public schools in the United States? 3. A detailed discussion of the stem cell research controversy. 4. Why are there different races of humans? 5. Is religion genetic? How and why did man begin to believe in supernatural spirits? 6. What are global warming’s possible causes, and likely consequences? 7. How can DNA help identify criminals and lost pets? 8. What are black holes and what causes volcanic eruptions? 9. How long will Earth, the Sun, and the Universe exist? 10. When do identical and fraternal twins occur, and why are identical quadruplets so rare?
About the Author
For over 50 years, Floyd J. Glidewell has been fascinated by how the Universe came into existence and how life evolved, and has been gathering scientific data to support his ideas and contentions. He believes many people would like to know how evolution works but have given up hope of ever being able to understand because most of the available information on the subject is disconnected, highly technical and complex. Settled Science is his attempt to simplify these complex topics so non-scientific readers can understand. Glidewell earned a B.S. in chemistry from Virginia Commonwealth University where his studies in chemistry, biology, physics and microbiology prepared him for studying many great books and scientific articles and reports authored by leading scientists. He has spent his adult life studying the formation of the Universe and related disciplines. He owned and operated a chemical supply business until his retirement in 2005. He has four children, four grandchildren and makes his home in Chesterfield, Virginia.
