Designed to the Core - [AUDIOBOOK]

Praise for Hugh Ross's Designed to the Core
"In Designed to the Core, Hugh Ross takes us on an unprecedented journey to explore the necessary requirements for a planet to support complex life. His truly comprehensive approach to the subject examines every aspect of Earth's life-friendly environment, from the cosmic supercluster that we inhabit, to our location in the Milky Way, and even deep inside Earth's core. The sheer number of the needed parameters is mind-boggling and unambiguously answers the question of whether Earth is unique in its capability of supporting complex life. The only question left for the reader to ponder is how such a fortunate planet could have come into existence at all. Many of us who have pondered that question will agree with Dr. Ross, that such exquisite design requires an intentional and powerful Designer."

"I have read books and articles that describe the rare Earth hypothesis; that is, that our planet enjoys a remarkable place in the solar system and that our solar system resides in an optimal place in the Milky Way. Designed to the Core is the first book I've ever read that explains how the Milky Way Galaxy itself is special and unique—the 'rare galaxy hypothesis!' Hugh Ross has a remarkable ability to gather and synthesize enormous amounts of technical data and then present it in a way that a scientific layperson (like me) can understand."
