Description

This work exposes the illogical logic of poor doctrines that shelter themselves behind the prestige of science. Midgley examines how science comes to be used as a substitute for religion and points out how badly that role distorts it.

First Sentence

The theory of evolution is not just an inert piece of theoretical science.
