Dr. Robert Peprah-Gyamfi is a Creationist par excellence! It is indeed gratifying that a medical doctor like Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi should use his insights as a doctor to make the case for Creationism, which gives the Lord Almighty full credit for the creation of Humankind as recorded in the Bible. Having read his book, I have to yield to the clear evidence of a Divine Creator-I can see no reason why any readers will not perceive for themselves the incredible uniqueness of the intelligence that has surely gone into the various systems that keep the human body alive and functioning. The brain, heart, liver, kidneys, spine--all of these and many more could only have come about through remarkably clever forethought and planning.

It is quite refreshing to read such a take on mankind's origins from a doctor of medicine. Just because science refuses to accept or understand the spiritual world does not mean it doesn't exist. If anything, that is exactly what the devil wishes mankind to believe, that he doesn't exist meaning that God doesn't exist either. The Bible foretells in Revelations, that mankind will strive to dishonour and disregard God, but that all will be revealed with the second coming of Christ. Mankind can never find out all of Gods work from the beginning to the end(Ecclesiastes 3:11). He that has wisdom, let them hear.

Book Review by Bruce D. Collins 14 May 2009
By Bruce D. Collins - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
"Seeing God Through The Human Body: A Doctor's Meditation On The Human Miracle" is the comprehensive work of Dr. Robert Peprah-Gyamfi and serves as a call to common sense that an Intelligent Creator is behind the miraculous wonder of the human body.

Years ago, when Peprah-Gyamfi was a student in medical school, he endured a steady stream of evolutionary theory- presented as fact- in classes such as Anatomy, Biochemistry, Physiology and others. As time passed and his career progressed, he saw that this concept of chance evolution was embraced by a large proportion of his peers.

As a medical doctor whose study of the human body is quite extensive, he sees the extraordinary physical body as overwhelming evidence to an Intelligent Designer.

"Seeing God Through The Human Body" is his presentation of the evidence. Over the course of the book, he furnishes the reader with a mountain of conclusive and circumstantial proof.

Starting with the beginning of human existence, his case begins at the point of conception. The author convincingly explains the mixing of chromosomal material to be too complex for it to originate in a world of happenstance.

Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi's work in "Seeing God" brings into focus the miraculous works of God so often taken for granted. As he points out," By approximately the fifth week of the union, the individual's heart has begun to beat. By the end of the fourth week, the spinal cord, muscles, and nerves have become apparent; we can see arms, legs, eyes and ears."

With an experienced, qualified, highly educated doctor at the helm, the book examines life in the womb in such detail as to compel reflection of the helpless condition of the fetus and the Creator's hand in the preservation of that life.

"Seeing God Through The Human Body" discusses the wonder of the various blood types that course through the veins of men and women. The example given is a mother of type A blood giving birth to a baby with blood group B. By Divine safeguard," there is no direct mixture of the blood of the unborn child and the expectant mother."

A body, conceived and created, knows the timing of the baby to be delivered. Can this really be chance?

Peprah-Gyamfi explains," We know that when the time comes for us to be born, hormones flow through the body and result in the contraction of the womb and the initiation of the labour process."

Child development also appears to lend credence to an Intelligent Design. The author explains the age old "chicken vs. egg" dilemna that baffles the evolutionist. Also, if "survival of the fittest" were universally true, babies should grow and thrive without parents.

Here, the doctor gives us an overview of the early life of a newborn child. His perspective allows the narrative to clearly illustrate all of the deliberate features, reflexes and characteristics of youth to be indelibly stamped by unsurpassed Intellectual Capacity.

What about the brain? It is a mysterious wonder, indeed!

Robert Peprah-Gyamfi writes," There is no rational relationship between the soft, jelly-like matter making up the brain and it's function; what association can we draw between the jelly-like tissue and the airplane or the spaceship it is capable of designing?" Then, he unveils the complexity of this great gift.

Next, "Seeing God" explores the transmitter of nerves known as the spinal cord. The relationship between the spinal cord and brain is simply amazing. Both are constantly in congruous operation for our benefit.

This body, when placed under the microscope of examination, overwhelmingly points to a Great Artist.

Peprah-Gyamfi also discusses in incredible detail more fascinating information on blood clotting, the heart, liver, teeth and other elements of the human body.
A healthy operating body also has regulators such as the pancreas to make sure we perform on appropriate levels. It produces two substances- insulin and glucagons- for this complicated task.

The kidney, working like a filter, takes water, salts, acids and alkalis from the blood. Can anyone study a body organ, understand its' purpose and intricacy, and question that this masterpiece was not created?

The entire body, working in harmony, is more detailed than a large corporation and, yet, we deny the One who fashioned all of the components and placed them together.

Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi has written an important book to the academia and peers who would deny the valid conclusion of truth that is as clear as the nose on their face.

"Seeing God Through The Human Body" is an interesting and thought provoking book.

Some good info, but a little on the dry side 29 May 2011
By David Brown - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The book was good overall, but I had hoped for alot more detail on the various organs within the human body which displays the Creators handiwork. My favorite book thus far, hands down, is Grant Jeffries book called 'Creation' where he very closely examines extreme detail to our cosmos, solar system, earth, DNA, the animal kingdom , and the human anatomy. It leaves the Reader completely awestruck.

This is about you personally 8 May 2009
By Karl Priest - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi witnessed the appalling treatment by witch-doctors on people in his native Ghana. He survived, and through many trials obtained a medical degree in Germany. Now he practices medicine in England and praises the Creator by using knowledge he obtained through medical school.

Seeing God through the Human Body is a concise journey through the major aspects of this "temple" in which humans live. Each chapter takes one miraculous part (brain, heart, eye, ear, etc) of human anatomy and describes it in terms that a layman can understand. Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi also takes us through the process of conception, gestation, and the birth process. There is a frank and interesting description of sexual reproduction with a unique take on the male sex organ and the female menstrual cycle.

Because he feels that atheists are acting aggressively worldwide, Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi does not hesitate to call evolution a lie, but more importantly Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi praises Almighty God throughout the book.

The book clearly explains the complicated design of the human body, and (chapter 4 for example) provides thought provoking questions for true believers in evolutionism to answer. Of course, they cannot.

Dr. Peprah-Gyamfi states, "His (God's) power, rightly so, is beyond anything our mental faculties, limited as they are, can fathom." God's powers are "immense, immense, immense!"

The reader of this book will be educated and uplifted.
