Science of Evolution And the Myth of Creationism: Knowing What's Real and Why It Matters

Author(s): Ardea Skybreak

New Releases | Science & Technology

This clear, lively, and systematic presentation examines the scientific evidence for evolution and reaches for the widest possible audience - from scientific minds to those with no science background at all. Forcefully rejecting creationist objections to evolution and including a critique of Intelligent Design, it argues that they are part of a larger social agenda. With discussion that celebrates the fascination to be found in studying the diversity and complexity of life, this examination suggests with some urgency that the science of evolution is crucial to the existence of science itself. 352 pp.
