Description: The documents and essays in this book portray the Arkansas creation-science case, emphasizing its implications for our understanding of the proper relationship between science and society.
The documents include the original "Balanced Treatment for Creation-Science and Evolution-Science Act" of 1981, the initial briefs of the plaintiffs and defendants in the case that challenged the Act, the opinion of the court written by Judge William Overton, and several pieces of followup legislation and legal opinion.
Essayists include attorneys from the New York firm of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher, & Flom, who describe why they volunteered their services to the plaintiffs and what special problems they encountered in working with scientists, and several of the expert witnesses and advisors who organized the probing of the nature of science that lay at the heart of the trial.
Sociologist Dorothy Nelkin explores the evolution of creationism from the time of the Scopes trial to the present; theologian Langdon Gilkey examines the interrelation of inquiry and belief; anatomist Joel Cracraft describes the scientific response to creationism; philosophers Michael Ruse and Larry Laudan debate the implications of the definition of science finally adopted by the court; and historian Stephen Brush assesses the possible impact of creationism on education in the physical sciences.
Marcel Chotkowski La Follette - editor of the journal Science, Technology, & Human Values, where much of this material was first collected - has rounded out this case book by adding an introduction, an extensive bibliography, and a review of the media coverage of the trial.

Description: This book analyzes the creation of the Universe, the formation of our solar system and the formation and development of plant and animal life on Earth, prehuman hominids and the eventual evolution of our species, Homo sapiens some 200,000 years ago in East Africa. It considers the possibility of extraterrestrial intelligent life in the cosmos. Creation seeks to reconcile Darwinian evolution with intelligent design theory where possible. Human beings are not descended from modern apes, but prehuman bipedal hominids were evolved from a common ancestor some 7 million years ago. But how? Although Dr. Darwin's fundamental thesis that all life shares common ancestors is proved by the convergence of the sciences, it does not follow that new species originate from natural selection or that life emerged on its own from a prebiotic environment. The Universe really is 13.7 billion years old and commenced with the Big Bang. The Big Bang expansion is still ongoing and galaxies continue to rush away from each other. Earth really is some 4.5 billion years old. But what caused the Big Bang? How did the Big Bang result in the formation of galaxies, star systems and habitable worlds? And what caused complex life to develop on Earth but nowhere else in this sun system, as of today's space exploration? Why have the Martian Rovers uncovered no fossils or even a shellfish on Mars although oceans once covered much of that planet's surface? Why are three-quarters of the Earth's surface covered with water? The book maintains that science and exploration offer the best hope of answering these questions.

Description: How many sheep does a dinosaur eat, per day, while living on Noah's ark? This in-depth essay brings to life the new Creation Museum in Kentucky. Established science and religion writer, Stephen T. Asma, visits the museum and humorously chronicles the odd pseudo-science. Asma is the author of the book "Stuffed Animals and Pickled Heads: the Culture and Evolution of Natural History Museums," and serves as an excellent guide to the museology of the Creation Museum. The director of the museum, Ken Ham, is interviewed, and the creationism/evolution debate is given fresh discussion.
