How would you react if told that you and your children have been lied to in science lessons at school and university? Yet this is exactly what has been happening for decades, as Icons of Evolution' demonstrates.
The author, a Berkeley Ph.D in Biology, is not a creationist, but his book describes many serious misrepresentations of facts commonly found in biology textbooks, which are used to perpetuate belief in evolution. The main part of the book describes ten of these icons', devoting one chapter to each, and shows what is wrong with them in the light of published scientific evidence. The chapters are all fairly brief, and each is divided into short sections, to make the material easier to assimilate. The author's thesis is amply documented with 71 pages of research notes at the end of the book.

Hard Cover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. Sjogren, Jody F. Ilustrador. 338 pages. Illustrated. From the dust jacket: "The best-known 'icons' of evolution-from pictures of apes evolving into humans, to comparisons of fish and human embryos, to moths on tree trunks-are false or misleading. For decades, biology students have been taught things about evolution that are simply true.These icons of evolution appear even in the most recent textbooks, although the scientific literature is full of evidence that they are false. Apparently, dogmatic promoters of Darwinian evolution fear that without these icons public faith in their claims will disappear, so they knowingly misinform our children and suppress scientific evidence.".
