The Evolution Debate

Some Americans say that human beings are the product of evolution, and others claim that an intelligent designer must be behind life on Earth. The controversy has even focused on what should be taught in public schools. Author Sherri Mabry Gordon presents the arguments on both sides and shows how religion, politics, law, and science interact to affect what students learn and what people believe.

* Reviews *

This impeccably balanced presentation of the arguments on both sides of the heated debate includes a list of the key players, past and present, and the battlegrounds where the conflict has been fought and continues to rage. Excellent sidebars, chapter notes, and sources make this a fine starting place for further research., School Library Journal March 2009
