Mr. Chapman relates the story of Kitzmiller vs. Dover. Creationists, who now advocate intelligent design, wanted Of Pandas and People adopted by the school board for biology classes. Readers learn of the positions taken by counsel on both sides, board members, and many others. The author spins the tale in a leisurely manner; for example there are several pages sharing his visit with plantiff Beth Eveland. Sample: "She became more interested in Easgtern relgions after going to a work-related seminar in Atlanta and hearing Deepak Chopra speak. She now considers herself more or less Buddhist, 'although, I'm sorry, I still gotta kill bugs.' A woman with a hot temper, she found that Buddhism and meditation had made her more tranquil."
No photos, no bibliography, no footnotes. And as there is no index, I reduce my rating by one star.
