Title: Potboiler science
Product review: I think there's a lot for us to learn about evolution. That is why I picked up Johnson's book, because it is supposed to be a logically based critique of the current theory of evolution. But Johnson wears his religious heart on his sleeve far too much, and his criticisms lose their validity as he loses his objectivity. It's too bad, because Johnson possesses a remarkable ability for analysis and debate. If he were to use his talents more objectively, I think he could contribute something of value on this topic, even as a critic. As it is, Johnson uses an attorney's strategy by taking a biased and adversarial position against the opposition - in this case, science and scientists. Johnson makes his greatest and most inexcusable error by taking statements made by scientists out of context.
