Well written. Academic. Scientific. Challenging. Thought-provoking. Short. Worth the read. Wherever you fall on the evolution debate, this ought to be read. Who can I give this to to stir them up?
The author has a degree in a science subject but does not apply scientific method to her topic. The book largely consists of the usual inaccurate representations of what is written in the Bible along with her own prejudices against modern science and some pretty fanciful theorising (an ice age after the biblical flood which must have therefore been within the last 7000 years by her timetable).
