"The 1925 trial of John Scopes in tiny Dayton, Tennessee remains a defining moment in American history. This "trial of the century"--a "media event" before the term was even coined--addressed issues that continue to affect our society today, such as school curriculum control, the ongoing tensions between science and faith in public schools and the ramifications of teaching evolution and human origins. This book is the first encyclopedic treatment of the Scopes Trial. The text draws on media reports, family interviews and Scopes' personal correspondence, providing new information and perspectives. Throughout the book, there are previously unseen photos and information about Scopes and his relatives, as well as insights about the trial's instigators, participants, and issues, all organized in a concise, objective and easily accessible format"--

Recenzijas

An excellent compendium...a comprehensive study of different aspects of the trial. ... The book discusses issues relevant today, such as control of school curricula, the conflict between fundamentalist religion and science, and the right to teach evolution and human origins in US public schools. The text draws on press coverage and archival materials, including Scopes's personal correspondence and previously unpublished family and other photographs. ...highly recommendedChoice Clearly organized, copiously illustrated, and lucidly writtenMoore and Brooks have provided valuable contributions to a literature that, as the centenary of the Scopes trial approaches, will only continue to swell.Skeptical Inquirer.
