One good book would be "The Biblical Flood: A Case Study of the Church's
Response to Extrabiblical Evidence" by Davis Young. Centered around just one
geologic issue, but it is educational in that it concentrates on the
historical development of the church's interpretation of geological evidence
(and Biblical evidence). And he makes good points about how non-scientific
factors, such as theology and Biblical interpretation, are also important for
a Christian to think clearly about when dealing with these issues.
