The Death of Evolution
“Jim Nelson Black reveals Darwinism as it really is, a speculative worldview founded on pseudoscience with terrible consequences... Ultimately, true science and true religion have the same Author.” — Dr. J. Grady Crosland, University ofArkansas for Medical Sciences
“The spiritual worldview provides another way of finding truth. Scientists who deny this would be well advised to consider the limits of their tools.” — Dr. Francis S. Collins, Geneticist and Director of the National Institutes of Health

Freefall of the American University
“A comprehensive and properly alarming picture
of the state of the contemporary university.”
— Academic Questions,
Journal of the National
Association of Scholars
"A wide ranging and devastating indictment
of American higher education. The inescapable conclusion is that the
American university is hollow, and worse than hollow, dangerous to the
students who arrive seeking knowledge."
— Hugh Hewitt, bestselling
author, radio
host, and law professor
"Freefall of the American University
is a reasoned, articulate, and provocative look at the radicalization of
our campuses and the perversion of basic educational goals in today's
university system. Freefall deserves a place on the bookshelf of
every concerned American: student, parent, or taxpayer. This is our
higher education system, and it's time to take it back."
— Ben Shapiro, syndicated
columnist and author
"A worthy contribution to the growing
literature documenting the devastation wreaked on our schools by
leftwing professors and educators."
— David Horowitz,
president,
Center for the Study of
Popular Culture

When Nations Die
“Jim Nelson Black writes with a rich sense of history and a deft treatment of modern issues. When Nations Die is thought-provoking and powerful.” — Dr. Os Guinness, Author, The American Hour; The Call
”The analogy between the decadence of ancient civilizations and the decadence of our own culture is striking and dreadfully true.” — Dr. Russell Kirk, Author, The Roots of American Order
“Brilliant ... Thoroughly documented and persuasively presented, the message of When Nations Die is one which is needed now.” — Dr. D. James Kennedy, Author, Character and Destiny
“A lucid and revealing analysis of how great civilizations have died, and a practical prescription for avoiding their fate. Timely, provocative, and essential reading.” — Dr. William Kirk Kilpatrick, Author, Psychological Seduction
