Happy Birthday, Monkeys!

In September, THE GOD OF MONKEY SCIENCE turns two years old!

And just in time for the celebration, here’s a new review by Glenn Branch (National Center for Science Education) in Reviews in Religion and Theology (Vol 321, No. 2).

The message of the book – the dangers of science denial and its roots in evangelicalism – is just as important, if not more so, since HHS is now led by a germ theory skeptic and vaccine conspiracist.

Here’s Branch:

“Addressing them in the same appealing conversational tone she used in her previous book, Baby Dinosaurs on the Ark? (Eerdmans, 2021), she urges them to reconsider their attitudes toward science and scientists, because, as she summarizes, ‘Our culture wars are killing people and wrecking faith’ (p. 179). At a time when the American public is viciously and unnecessarily divided over issues such as these, The God of Monkey Science is a welcome intervention.”

  1. I live in New Zealand and it is very expensive to import things like books here. However a relative of mine was recently visiting America and kindly offered to bring a few books back for me in her luggage. The God of Monkey Science was top of my list and I have just finished it. I found it a fascinating read, and sadly the attitudes it outlines have spread far beyond America and become a worldwide problem.
