Follow Jason Andrews, Number 12, the Occupant Information Recorder. His job is simple: He keeps tabs on everyone else and makes sure they're doing their jobs. With a request, he is also put in charge of controlling the emotions of everyone. Stuck in a Fallout Shelter with no one but his brother and 68 other people, he must learn to follow orders from the demanding HOPE program. In this test of morals, trust, and survival, does Jason have what it takes to live on? Or will he fail, and simply become another number to fall?

If God exists, does he care about his evolving, suffering world? Most answers are unsatisfactory. Morriss book is different: short but not superficial, strong in its science and philosophy, and realistic as a carer of a handicapped teenage grandson, still unable to walk and talk. Like Stephen Hawking and Einstein, John Morris also tries to explore the mind of God. Violence began with the Big Bang, long before legendary Adams sin. Morris believes God is typically non-interventionist but constantly interactive, operating creatively within his own physical laws, that allow freedom to particles and people, resulting in innovations and mutations, not always beneficial. Compared with other religions, Christs cross and resurrection give more historic hope in a God who suffers alongside us, to create good, responsible persons. Here is a 100-minute read, of interest to believers and atheists alike. Its brave conclusion gives reasonable grounds for thinking we live in a loving Gods best possible world, despite unavoidable suffering and natural disasters.

Unlike Richard Dawkins, the Revised Edition, Contemporary Creed sees no conflict between evolution and God, faith and modern science. But what sort of God creates a violent universe with a Big Bang almost 14 billion years ago and appears to do little or nothing to prevent built-in suffering and natural disasters like earthquakes, famines, disabled children and cancers? The Christian God leaves a lot unexplained! Some writers give superficial answers whereas Morris who helps care for his own handicapped grandson gets to the root of difficulties and succeeds in finding credible pathways through sixty problems of Christian beliefs and ethics. He writes for believers and unbelievers: for Christians like himself who admit their doubts, and for atheists and agnostics interested in life's big questions. His unusual format of 90% prose and 10% original poetry is entertaining, and the style straightforward everyday language, offering conclusions that are often open-ended, undogmatic. His systematic theology becomes a brief A-Z that may be read in any order for individual Bible study, or by house groups that want a provocative structure for lively discussion.

The author of this classic work took a "campaign" approach to Edward I's methodical reduction of Welsh independence, achieved through many years of building strategic castles, conducting "scorched earth" sweeps, and establishing loyal local nobles.
