Dave Montgomery on cover of GSA today

Geologist Dave Montgomery‘s article “The Evolution of Creationism” made the cover of the November issue of GSA Today (the Geological Society of America).  His article is derived from his latest book The Rocks Don’t Lie: A Geologist Investigates Noah’s Flood.

Both are reviewed on the Mountain Beltway blog, part of the American Geophysical Union site. The review is pretty great:  “Montgomery’s new book is much more accessible (less dense) than Ron Numbers’ The Creationists, and I think it’s essential reading for anyone engaged in geoscientific outreach. Montgomery has performed a major public service by writing it.”

Also check out this review of Dave’s book from the Wickersham’s Conscience blog: “This is a highly readable and entertaining lay treatment of the history of geology and the tension between geology and Biblical literalism.  Strongly recommended.”
