British publisher Hillhouse has published a new textbook that should add real value to the scientific exploration of evolution and origins. Rather than being dumbed down, Explore Evolution: The Arguments For and Against Neo-Darwinism is full of information on evolution, and employs an ‘inquiry based learning‘, promoting ‘discovery, deliberation, and argument.’
You can read (or listen to) the CSC’s take on the book, and visit the Explore Evolution site. One endorser wrote:
I think Explore Evolution does a very good job in its stated purpose, namely, to provide a forensicadj. employing scientific analysis of physical evidence (as from a crime scene) presentation of the open questions surrounding the Neo-Darwinian orthodoxy in contemporary biology. The style of the textbook alone is a breath of fresh air from the sterile dogmatism that students normally encounter in the classroom.
