Title: 
Darwin on Trial
Author(s): 
Phillip E. Johnson
Phillip Johnson is a professor at the University of California's prestigious Boalt Hall School of Law, and until the publication of Darwin on Trial was unknown as an evolution-basher. This book certainly establishes his credentials, however, and we will have Phillip Johnson to kick us around for a long time.

Title: 
Darwin on Trial
Author(s): 
Phillip E. Johnson
The supposed virtues of looking at evolutionary biology through the eyes of a legal scholar shows up frequently in newspaper reporter's discussions of Darwin on Trial. But why should we assume lawyers would have a special insight into evolution, or science in general?
