Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Eldredge presents the most up-to-date examination of the creation-evolution confrontation available.

Book News Annotation:

A curator in invertebrate paleontology at the American Museum of Natural History, Eldredge sets out and counters the arguments of conservative Christians against evolution and for divine creation. He describes their basic argument and their strategies for advancing it, the recent attack on philosophical naturalism, and models of intelligent design. He also disputes the claim that the study of evolution cannot be scientific and leads to a demise of family, religion, and traditional values.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Synopsis:

After studying the debate for 20 years, a leading expert on evolution counters creationist arguments with a simple overview of the evolutionary process. Instead of pitting science against religion, the author focuses on evolution to address catastrophic species loss on Earth. 2 illustrations. Author lectures.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. 210-216) and index.
