did under the old. Man must be re examined now again as the crown of a creation which is “ a mighty or ganism of the most differing worlds bound together in all,its parts by the same creative concept, the whole uni verse is a ceaseless song of praise, a psalm of creation displaying millions of variations, yet bound together by the same basic theme” (p. 46). Both science and Genesis agree that man is the summit of the pyramid of crea tion. A ll this is foundational to Sau er’s discussion of man’s original king- ship over the earth, his temporary fall from this lofty position, and his restoration to it in even a greater measure through His perfect repre sentative, the divine God-Man and King of the Universe. In Christ man through redemption realizes the pur pose of God and fulfills the design God has for him. A full realization of this would make a great difference in man’s estimate of himself and even of a Christian man’s dignity and triumph over all forces that are opposed to this supreme design and purpose of God. Readers will find stimulation and spiritual maturity in this book. 256 pages; cloth; Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., Grand Rap ids; $3.95.
