Science is on the defensive. Half of Americans reject the
theory of evolution and intelligent-design campaigns are
gaining ground. Classroom by classroom, creationism is
overthrowing biology. In Why Darwin Matters, bestselling
author Michael Shermer decodes the scientific evidence to
show that evolution is not just a theory and illustrates how
it achieves the design of life through the bottom-up process
of natural selection. Shermer, once an evangelical Christian
and a creationist, argues that intelligent-design proponents
are invoking a combination of bad science, political
antipathy, and flawed theology. He refutes their
pseudoscientific arguments and then demonstrates why
conservatives and people of faith can and should embrace
evolution. Cutting the politics away from the facts, Why
Darwin Matters is an incisive examination of what is at
stake in the debate over evolution
