Ross and others:
This journal is sponsoring Christian colleges (including Dordt, Wheaton,
Hope, Calvin, Baylor and a lot of others). Since we are a sponsoring college
all of the faculty member at Dordt get a copy and I suspect the same is true
for the other institutions. The cheap way to get one is to ask one of the
profs at one of the Christian Colleges or look in their libraries. Otherwise
you can get a single issue for $6:00 or a years subscription for $19 a year.
If you know the price of journals both of those are good prices. Write to:

Although I still have not read it and can not get to it for a bit, let
me indicate that there are four essays in this issue. "one, written by Davis
young, does examine the issue of human origins. A second submitted by Bruce
Reichenback, proposes criteria which may be useful in evaluating theories
about complex adaptive systems, such as evolution, which are in-principle
nonpredictive. John Baldwin, in his essay challenges the general acceptance
of darwinistic gradualism as the mechanism for the evolution of complex organs
while Gordon Mill's essay on design theory argues in favor of a progressive
creation model at the molecular level. the latter essay is significantly more
"scientific" in its content and style than is customary for articles [they are
too used to the humanities types JFM] published in CSR, but we believe that
its relevance to Creation/Evolution dialogue warranted acceptance." p. 379
There is also a review of both Creation Hypothesis and Darwin on Trial with
responses from the authors.
