Following up on coverage in CatholicCulture.org and the Catholic Answers Live radio program,  � the new book by tutor and alumnus Dr. Michael A. Augros (�92) � is now the subject of a  in The Tidings. �The battle to prove or refute the existence of God by the New Atheists and the proponents of intelligent design is mostly waged in attack and defense of evidence,� writes Kevin Theriault in the official newspaper of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. By contrast, Mr. Theriault observes, Dr. Augros �takes a non-polemic approach, drawing readers along a reasoned pathway of general principles in order to see God�s handiwork for themselves.�

Mr. Theriault commends Who Designed the Designer? for, beyond demonstrating the existence of a creator, also probing such questions as, �What is this being that exists all by itself? What is the divine mind and how is it different than ours?� As such, the book does much more than offer another salvo in the ongoing battle between atheists and believers. �Most people, it seems to me, don�t have a clear notion of what God is,� the article quotes Dr. Augros as saying. �If you are supposed to love God with your whole heart, soul, and mind, one should be interested in knowing what God is.�
