In Christians Can't Lose, author Gregg George sets the record straight. He writes about the many issues people have against Christianity and explains why Christians believe what they do. He calls on skeptics to keep an open mind about a Christian's belief in God because supposed evidence to the contrary may not be as compelling as they think. George also calls on Christians to behave in a way that magnifies the Lord and shows the world the true love of Christ. He presents a case for believing in God simply because a believer cannot lose. Even if God does not exist, a Christian loses nothing for his belief. However, if God really does exist, a Christian will gain eternal life with God, while a nonbeliever will suffer eternal banishment from the presence of God. The choice should be quite simple.

From shrews to blue whales, placental mammals are among the most diverse and successful vertebrates on the Earth. Arising sometime near the Late Cretaceous, this broad clade of mammals contains more than 1,000 genera and approximately 4,400 extant species. Although much studied, the origin and diversification of the placentals continue to be a source of debate.

Paleontologists Kenneth D. Rose and J. David Archibald have assembled the world's leading authorities to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date evolutionary history of placental mammals. Focusing on anatomical evidence, the contributors present an unbiased scientific account of the initial radiation and ordinal relationships of placental mammals, representing both the consensus and significant minority viewpoints. This book will be invaluable to paleontologists, evolutionary biologists, mammalogists, and students.
