“Counting to God” tells the story of an academically trained atheist who, through scientific and philosophical arguments, comes to the conviction that God exists. This journey from atheism to belief in God was not guided by Holy Books or fueled by religious experiences - the author, Douglas Ell, only appeals to rational arguments. Still, the book is not a cold recital of arguments: it remains the story of a personal journey. The book presents a good overview of the arguments for Design that have been defended in recent years. It's an excellent choice if you are looking for an analysis of not only the biological, but also the cosmological and mathematical arguments in favor of Design, in a single book. Because of its breadth, ranging from molecular biology to qunatum physics, even well-informed readers are bound to learn something new. From Chapter 4 onwards “Counting to God” has a high information density. This can be a bit overwhelming to readers who are completely unfamiliar with the subject. The large quantity of information does not adversely affect the quality of it. I have found surprisingly few errors, for a book on this topic. A minor drawback is that the book contains endnotes rather than footnotes, forcing the reader to flip through the pages in order to read the notes.
