The War of the Jesus and Darwin Fishes

Description:

This volume begins with the simple placement of fish symbols on the back of cars -- one a fish with a cross exhibited by Christians, the other a fish with legs, filled with the word "evolution"--And moves to explore the cultural milieu of religious demonstration on a global level. Chapters consider these symbols as reflections of a global war of beliefs that began with initial conflicts over evolutionary ideas in the Enlightenment and continue to this day. History, religion and science work to create a story of discovery and change.
