Review

"With great care, attention to the scientific evidence and a wonderfully accessible style, Coyne...presents an overwhelming case for evolution."

"WHY EVOLUTION IS TRUE is outstandingly good. Coyne's knowledge of evolutionary biology is prodigious, his deployment of it as masterful as his touch is light. His coverage is enviably comprehensive, yet he simultaneously manages to keep the book compact and readable."

"Coyne never takes it on faith that evolution exists; his book is a constant proving of exactly how and why it can exist....[and] the joy he takes in his work is evident on every page."

"[T]he respected evolutionary biologist lays out an airtight case that Earth is unspeakably old and that new species evolve from previous ones."

"As they follow Mr. Coyne's parade of evidence -- his discussions of the fossil record, of vestigial traits, of the ways in which living things constantly make novel use of the bits and pieces they have inherited, of the distribution of plants and animals -- the components of Darwin's thesis are sequentially supported. We have a list of things to be shown, they are shown and the truth of evolution is established."

"[A]t a time...when good evolution books are rife, Coyne has given general readers one of the best."

Annotation

Dr. Jerry Coyne presents a wealth of evidence from a wide variety of scientific fields which conclusively supports the theory of evolution and natural selection. Using data gathered from modern genetics, biology, anatomy, geology, and more, Coyne systematically addresses every aspect of the classic argument between evolution and creationism and clearly demonstrates that the natural evidence favors evolution on each point. Parties on both sides of the debate should find this to be an essential text.
