About the Author
Philip Stott was born in England in 1943. He studied at Manchester University, where he obtained B.S. (with honours) and M.S. degrees in Civil Engineering. He lectured at universities in Nigeria and South Africa and carried out research in the analysis of geometrically nonlinear structures. He shared the Henry Adams Award for outstanding research in 1969. While lecturing at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, he studied biology. After leaving Wits he joined an engineering consulting firm. His ongoing interest in all aspects of science led to studies in mathematics and astronomy with the University of South Africa and, later, to four years of part-time research with the Applied Mathematics Department of the University of the Orange Free State in Bloemfontein, South Africa.
After many years as a firm atheist, he was converted to Christianity in 1976. Following several years of studying the conflicting claims of secular science and Scripture, he actively entered the Creation/Evolution debate in 1989. In 1992, he was invited to address a conference in Russia and since then has lectured, addressed conferences, and taken part in debates in eastern and western Europe, America, Canada, and southern Africa. Venues have included the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN), a UNESCO International Conference on the Teaching of Physics, and the Russian Academy of Sciences. Philip Stott is married to Margaret (born Lloyd). They have two children, Robert and Angela; and two
grandchildren, Sean and Julie. They live in Bloemfontein, South Africa.

An action-filled novel that combines Biblical and scientific themes with heart-racing adventure.
Traveling by mag-sled, Japh overnights in a bronto-infested floating forest. A scream in the night, a sudden devastating crash of[either insert the word devastation after of, or delete of for briefer excerpt], and flight becomes the only option, beginning a stunning chain of events which will change not only his life, but the entire course of history.
At every turn, evil has flooded the earth. Unbridled deceit, immorality, murder, and mayhem leave the godly remnant in dire straights with constant peril the only certainty. As the earth is shaken, its very survival and the fate of humanity hang in the balance.

Praise for Philip Stott’s Novel
I remain very impressed by this novel. As far as I know, noth- ing like it has ever appeared in print. I would be surprised if it should be anything less but very well received by the Christian community at large. Another World provides a window into a past world that looks and sounds eerily familiar; a world only separated from us by a little time and a lot of water. No one who dares to compare that world with ours can escape its fear- ful implications. Philip Stott has written a novel that may be called, as he himself says, Biblical science fiction. It is certainly Biblical, and it is scientifically tenable. That leaves precious little fiction to hide behind. May all who read this account of the first world’s terrifying ruin by flood be driven to seek refuge from the judgment that is yet to come by fire.

Scientist, educator, and author Philip Stott takes us on a harrow-ing journey back to the future. The time: a few thousand years ago. The place: a world we can barely imagine—and may not want to. Here there is much to amaze, but there is also much to appall. Here, all but a few have forgotten God; here, none but a few realize that God’s judgment is coming—terrifyingly—from above and beneath. To enter that world is to risk seeing our own. But enter it you should—the better to prepare yourself for another world that is soon to come.

A Seeker’s Journey to the Origin of the Universe, Life, and Man
At every turn, evil has flooded the earth. Deceit, immorality, murder, and all leave the godly remnant as the only certainty. The earth is shaken, its very survival and the fate of humanity hang in the balance.
The author Phillip Stott takes us on a journey back to the future a few thousand years ago. The place is a world that only we can imagine and may not want too. Most everyone has forgotten God and only a few believe that God's judgment is coming.
The book is a very serious book to read and really was hard for me to understand. But as a Christian I do believe that Christ is coming back some day and taking His children home so we all need to watch and pray all the time as we do not know the time nor the hour. It is so much better to be ready when He comes.
