{"product_id":"scientists-confront-intelligent-design-and-creationism","title":"Scientists Confront Intelligent Design and Creationism","description":"From leading scientists, lawyers, and educators, a new and decisive rebuttal to the assault on evolution from proponents of \"intelligent design.\" With the pseudoscience of creationism rising again under the guise of \"intelligent design,\" this powerful collection eviscerates the new assault on evolution and reveals the pervasive and insidious threat posed to genuine science by ID proponents like Phillip Johnson, Michael Behe, and William Dembski. The sixteen original essays address two key issues: the overwhelming scientific evidence for evolution gathered over 150 years and the dubious underpinnings of creationism; and how society can mount better educational and legal policies to prevent a theological takeover of our public and scientific institutions. The book includes powerful voices in the modern culture war against ID, including Kevin Padian, paleontologist and expert witness in the landmark lawsuit of Kitzmiller v. Dover. With creationist arguments forever morphing and reappearing under new aliases, this new confrontation is a must- read for teachers, students, and general readers, and a ringing and lasting refutation of creationism's fraudulent claims. 12 illustrations\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0393050904\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0393050904.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Petto, Andrew J.|Godfrey, Laurie R.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
