This beautifully illustrated and well-organized volume comes down firmly on the necessity of teaching evolution as the cornerstone for any science curriculum, articulating in gentle but clear language why the religious belief behind creationism invalidates its usefulness or even its appropriateness in science classrooms in America. The history of the theory of evolution, the basis of modern scientific method and study, and the history and religious background of the theories of creationism and intelligent design are described in separate chapters. The book is written to be accessible to public school teachers and parents by a committee of educators in the U.S. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
