The RATE book is a definitive resource on radioactive dating for every scientist's library, whether evolutionist or creationist. It examines radioisotope theory, exposes its plaguing problems, and offers a better alternative.

This status report on the RATE (Radioisotopes and the age of the earth) project discusses isochrons and other experimental results within a creationist young earth time frame. Models for accelerated decay during creation week, the Fall, or during the Genesis Flood are prime hypotheses for explaining radioisotope data. The geophysical and geological histories of rocks and magma sources of igneous rocks must also be considered.

The RATE group, consisting of six young-earth creationist geologists, geochemists, and physicists, is cooperating to research the issue of Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth. They have dared to ask the tough questions and are searching for an alternative explanation for the billions of years found in rocks. They are asking questions like:
* Why don’t dating methods agree — what is the source of the discordance?
* What about the lead found in rocks — did it all come from uranium?
* Where did all the decay-produced helium go — did it escape to the atmosphere or is it still trapped in the rocks?
* Can accelerated decay explain the abundance of daughter products?
* Do nuclear decay rates change — is it theoretically possible?
* Can inheritance and mixing from primordial reservoirs of argon, helium, and other end products during Creation and the Flood explain the apparent old ages?
* What about nature`s tiny mystery, the halos of polonium and uranium? How did they form and when? What about fission tracks?
* Can halos and fission tracks tell us something about the history of radioactive decay on the earth?
