History Forum Addresses Creation/Evolution Controversy.
Schweinsberg, John
Reports of the National Center for Science Education, v17 n5 p12-16 Sep-Oct 1997
A series of programs entitled Creationism and Evolution: The History of a Controversy was presented at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. The controversy was addressed from an historical and sociological, rather than a scientific perspective. Speakers addressed the evolution of scientific creationism, ancient texts versus sedimentary rocks (cosmologies in conflict), the Scopes trial, and current perspectives. (PVD)
