As recently seen in the Kitzmiller vs. Dover case, the evolution versus creation debate will seemingly never end. This work provides a handy resource for students and others who want to understand the past and present of this debate in the words of the people of the time. Each document is from a major participant in the debates and includes any famous arguments, from the work of Charles Darwin and his earliest critics to the present day. The editors have included a lengthy introduction and analysis of each document that places it within historical and scientific context, and the volume includes numerous sidebars on people, events, and important concepts. "Evolution and Creationism" aims to enhance our understanding of the debate by presenting some seventy documents, written by the participants themselves, which shed light on the origins, goals, and history of the ongoing debate. Topics include: Darwin's theory of natural selection, and reviews of his work from his contemporaries; the rise of Fundamentalism and its opposition to evolution; from "Equal-Time" to the de-emphasis of evolution in the schools; and evolution and its discontents at the beginning of the 21st century. In addition, the work includes an extensive bibliography and reference guide to relevant print and electronic resources.
