The origin of life on Earth has always been a topic for debate in America. Creationism and intelligent design are usually seen as the province of the religious, while evolution belongs to the scientists and secular thinkers.

The origin of life on Earth has always been a topic for debate in America. Creationism and intelligent design are usually seen as the province of the religious, while evolution belongs to the scientists and secular thinkers. But is it possible to be a Christian and still support the idea of evolution?
Scientist Karl Giberson thinks so. Raised to believe in creationism, he eventually abandoned that doctrine while still embracing Christianity. Saving Darwin explores the history of the controversy that swirls around the theory of evolution, from Darwin's groundbreaking book to court battles of today, and shows why, and how, it is possible to believe in God and evolution at the same time.
Karl Giberson runs the Forum on Faith and Science at Gordon College, and has been on the faculty of Eastern Nazarene College since 1984. He was the founding editor of Science & Theology News, and editor-in-chief of Science & Spirit. His books include Worlds Apart: The Unholy War Between Science and Religion, Species of Origins: America's Search for a Creation Story (with Don Yerxa), and Oracles of Science: Celebrity Scientists Versus God and Religion (with Mariano Artigas).
"Giberson attacks the conundrum [of evolution] with eloquence and clarity. Saving Darwin offers readers two gifts: a cultural history of the anti-Darwin movement that details how its tenets, far from being the traditional doctrine of any church, were developed by a few cranks and fueled by larger, populist fears of secular culture; and an empathetic, comprehensible account of how the world looks if you believe in scientific creationism, as he once did."-Washington Post
