A balanced, in-depth analysis of the evolution debate! Surveying four main schools of thought---neo-Darwinism, meta-Darwinism, creationism, and intelligent design---Fowler and Kuebler set aside the philosophical and religious issues to provide an objective evaluation of the scientific merits of each. Their critical examination will equip students, church leaders, and laypeople to develop their own conclusions. 400 pages, softcover from Baker.

In the emotional debate surrounding evolution, it is often difficult to cut through the competing agendas to gain an unbiased understanding of the scientific issues involved. The Evolution Controversy provides a resource for doing so. The authors leave aside the profound philosophical and religious issues involved in the controversy in favor of a balanced and critical examination of the four major schools of thought involved: Neo-Darwinism, Creationism, Intelligent Design, and Meta-Darwinism. The focus is on an objective evaluation of the scientific merits of each school, as well as an examination of areas of agreement and disagreement among the schools. The goal is to equip readers, whether students, church leaders, or the general public, to come to their own informed conclusions.
