Another World

Traveling by mag-sled, Japh overnights in a bronto-infested floating forest. A scream in the night, a sudden devastating crash, and flight becomes the only option, beginning a stunning chain of events which will change not only his life, but the entire course of history. At every turn, evil has flooded the earth. Unbridled deceit, immorality, murder, and mayhem leave the godly remnant in dire straights with constant peril the only certainty. As the earth is shaken, its very survival and the fate of humanity hang in the balance. Here is an engaging adventure-novel, retelling the history of the earth leading up to Noah's Great Flood from a Biblical and young-earth creationist point of view.

Philip Stott was born in England in 1943. He studied at Manchester University, where he obtained B.S. (with honours) and M.S. degrees in Civil Engineering. He lectured at universities in Nigeria and South Africa and carried out research in the analysis of geometrically nonlinear structures. He shared the Henry Adams Award for outstanding research in 1969. While lecturing at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, he studied biology. After leaving Wits he joined an engineering consulting firm. His ongoing interest in all aspects of science led to studies in mathematics and astronomy with the University of South Africa and, later, to four years of part-time research with the Applied Mathematics Department of the University of the Orange Free State in Bloemfontein, South Africa. After many years as a firm atheist, he was converted to Christianity in 1976. Following several years of studying the conflicting claims of secular science and Scripture, he actively entered the Creation/Evolution debate in 1989. In 1992, he was invited to address a conference in Russia and since then has lectured, addressed conferences, and taken part in debates in eastern and western Europe, America, Canada, and southern Africa. Venues have included the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN), a UNESCO International Conference on the Teaching of Physics, and the Russian Academy of Sciences. Philip Stott is married to Margaret (born Lloyd). They have two children, Robert and Angela; and two grandchildren, Sean and Julie. They live in Bloemfontein, South Africa.

Review :
I remain very impressed by this novel. As far as I know, nothing like it has ever appeared in print. I would be surprised if it should be anything less but very well received by the Christian community at large. Another World provides a window into a past world that looks and sounds eerily familiar; a world only separated from us by a little time and a lot of water. No one who dares to compare that world with ours can escape its fearful implications. Philip Stott has written a novel that may be called, as he himself says, Biblical science fiction. It is certainly Biblical, and it is scientifically tenable. That leaves precious little fiction to hide behind. May all who read this account of the first world's terrifying ruin by flood be driven to seek refuge from the judgment that is yet to come by fire. -- Rev. Barry Beukema Scientist, educator, and author Philip Stott takes us on a harrowing journey back to the future. The time: a few thousand years ago. The place: a world we can barely imagine--and may not want to. Here there is much to amaze, but there is also much to appall. Here, all but a few have forgotten God; here, none but a few realize that God's judgment is coming--terrifyingly--from above and beneath. To enter that world is to risk seeing our own. But enter it you should--the better to prepare yourself for another world that is soon to come. -- Dean Davis, Director, Come Let us Reason
