Author
Phillip E. Johnson
Book Description
Darwin on Trial is the title of a book on evolution that ruffled the feathers of the scientific community. Philip Johnson, a distinguish Professor of Law from the University of California at Berkeley, critiques evolutionary theory from a secular standpoint as he examines the rationale scientists use to protect their evolutionary ideology. This book clearly demonstrates that naturalist evolution is not based on a fair assesment of the scientific evidence. Johnson concludes that evolution is not only unproven, but contrary to the overwhelming weight of scientific evidence. This book demonstrates the importance of not believing everything you hear and taught!
