Why do so many Americans reject the modern theory of evolution? Seeking answers,        mathematician Jason Rosenhouse became a regular attendee at creationist conferences        and other gatherings. After ten years of attending events like the giant Creation        Mega-Conference in Lynchburg, Virginia, and visiting sites like the Creation Museum        in Petersburg, Kentucky, and after hundreds of mostly friendly conversations with        creationists of varying stripes, he has emerged with a story to tell, a story that        goes well beyond the usual stereotypes of Bible-thumping fanatics railing against        coldly rational scientists. Through anecdotes, personal reflections, and scientific        and philosophical discussion, Rosenhouse presents a more down-to-earth picture of        modern creationism and the people who espouse it. He also tells the story of his own        nonbeliever's attempt to understand a major aspect of American religion. Forced to        wrestle with his views about religion and science, Rosenhouse found himself drawn        into a new world of ideas previously unknown to him, arriving at a sharper        understanding of the reality of science versus religion disputes, and how these        debates look to those beyond the ivory tower.
