and fallacies of Intelligent Design Theory, and its claim to be
‘good science’.

between evolutionary theory and Intelligent Design in the
classroom
- Puts the debate into its scientific and historical
context
- Looks at a variety of topics, including the relation between
Darwinism and modern evolutionary theory, the use of computer
science and information theory by the creationists, and the idea of
metaphysical naturalism
- Rejects Intelligent Design’s claim to legitimacy, showing
clearly how and why it is an unsuitable alternative to evolutionary
biology in the classroom
- A thought-provoking book for those seeking to understand an
intellectual debate that is shaping our education policies
