Heated debates over evolution versus creationism have occurred
almost nonstop--in courts, schools, churches, and elsewhere--from
the 1859 publication of Charles Darwin's "On the Origin of Species"
through the 2005 "Kitzmiller v. Dover "trial and beyond. This
concise reference illuminates the human side of this long, often
colorful controversy by giving synopses of every major person,
organization, and place involved in it. In more than 500 entries,
many of them illustrated, it describes well-known scientists,
religious leaders, lawyers, and others, including Charles Darwin,
Andrew Carnegie, H.L. Mencken, and Bruce Babbitt. It also describes
many less familiar figures such as Billy Sunday, a baseball player
and influential revival preacher who rejected evolution, claiming
it was for "godless bastards and godless losers." With entries on
several trials, including the Scopes Trial, and on topics such as
the Galapagos Islands and "The Flintstones, More Than Darwin "is
both an essential guide to this debate and an intriguing read.
