This book is a great analysis of LDS scripture and modern geology. While it could use some literary touches now and again, it's great at not assuming what is not in official sources; it uses scripture and scientific research, not common assumption or understanding. This results in an understanding of the creation which seems consistent with both "faith and science" - and yet is one which would likely cause most Mormons and geologists to do a double take. It's worth reading, in my opinion, for that reason alone.
