Did the Devil Make Darwin Do It?: Modern Perspectives on the Creation / Evolution Controversy

This volume comprises chapters by various authorities and professionals who analyse and discuss different facets of the classic creation-evolution controversy. The perspectives of a diverse group of educators, philosophers, ministers, historians, and scientists offer a range of viewpoints for a logical and balanced dialogue. While this text favours the teaching of evolution, it is not pedantic and dogmatic and explains in non-technical terms the why, what, and how of the creation-evolution controversy. Evidence from several sciences is employed to explain the evolution of the universe, the earth, and life on the earth, including humans. A variety of references for further reading on the subject are also included.
