In the well-known Scopes "Monkey Trial" of 1925, famously portrayed
in the film and play Inherit the Wind, William Jennings Bryan's
fundamentalist fervor clashed with defense attorney Clarence
Darrow's aggressive agnosticism, illustrating what current scholars
call the conflict thesis. It appeared, regardless of the actual
legal question of the trial, that Christianity and science were at
war with each other. Decades later, a new generation of evangelical
scientists struggled to restore peace. After the Monkey Trial is
the compelling history of those evangelical scientists in Britain
and America who, unlike their fundamentalist cousins, supported
mainstream scientific conclusions of the world and resisted the
anti-science impulses of the era. This book focuses on two
organizations, the American Scientific Affiliation and the Research
Scientists' Christian Fellowship (today Christians in Science), who
for more than six decades have worked to reshape the evangelical
engagement with science and redefine what it means to be a
creationist.
