Dr Batten is an internationally renowned scientist who received both his B.Sc.Agr.(First Class Honours) and his Ph.D. from the University of Sydney. He worked for 20 years as a research horticulturalist with the NSW Department of Agriculture. His research included environmental adaptation of a wide range of tropical/subtropical plants which included floral biology, floral induction, breeding, environmental physiology, plant taxonomy, water requirements and mineral nutrition. His research on floral induction overturned long-held ideas which had been an impediment to the scientific understanding of these plants, as well as causing economic loss due to inappropriate management of crops. He conducted a number of other research projects which attracted wide publicity in science journals. Don was converted to Christ at the age of 10 after listening to a street preacher, and entered the ministry in Brisbane, Australia in 1994 and has spoken around the world on the creation issue, showing the errors in the evolutionary ideas he was taught. He is co-author of The Answers Book, One Blood, Answers to the 4 Big Questions, 15 Reasons to Take Genesis as History, and author of the booklets Does Carbon Dating Disprove the Bible? and Is There Intelligent Life in Outer Space? Don is also a co-editor of Creation magazine, and has written many articles for Creation as well as the in-depth Journal of Creation (formerly TJ).
