Dismantling the Big Bang: God's Universe Rediscovered is a 2005 book by Alex Williams and the physicist John G Hartnett, published by Master Books / Creation Book Publishers.

Overview

Written for a general audience, the book presents a young-earth creationist critique of Big Bang cosmology. It offers a brief history of scientific cosmology, an outline of the Big Bang model (including the origins of stars, planets, and life), and a "creation model," and argues that the biblical account provides a better explanation of origins than the naturalistic Big Bang. It challenges the reliability of evolutionary time scales and cosmic age indicators, and is fully illustrated and indexed.
