>About Professor Johnson
>
> Professor Phillip Johnson is a graduate of Harvard and the University
>of Chicago. He was a law clerk for Chief Justice Earl Warren of the United
>States Supreme Court, and has taught law for over twenty years at the
>University of California at Berkeley. He took up the study of Darwinism
>because he saw that the books defending the theory were dogmatic and
>unconvincing.
> Professor Johnson looks at the evidence for Darwinistic evolution the
>way a lawyer would -- with a cold dispassionate eye for logic and proof. His
>discovery is that scientists have put the cart before the horse by prematurely
>accepting Darwin's theories as fact. His books, tapes, and videos are designed
>to give Americans the information they need to make up their own minds.

>clerk to the U.S. Supreme Court, set to take on the "intellectual superstitions"
>of the day. After this book, the culture wars may never be the same again.
