Your job is to explain insect metamorphosis in evolutionary terms. What will you say? We can learn from the example of two geneticists who basically said the process is "evolutionarily conserved" -- that is, not evolved! Read More ›

The argument from evolutionary developmental biology and embryonic development is probably one of the stronger for common descent. But I'm not convinced. Read More ›

(Not) Making the Grade: An Evaluation of 22 Recent Biology Textbooks and Their Use of Selected Icons of Evolution

Unfortunately, as this review has made clear, biology textbooks have a long way to go. Parents, students and educators who seek accuracy and objectivity in evolution-education will have to continue to be a "royal pain in the fanny" of textbook publishers. Read More ›

Fact-Checking Wikipedia on Common Descent: The Evidence from Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry

Jonathan McLatchie
