Published in 2001, From Genesis to Genetics lucidly defends the importance of evolution in a sound science education. NCSE Executive Director Eugenie C. Scott writes, "There are few scientists as knowledgeable and clear about how science works, and as thoughtful about the creation and evolution controversy as John A. Moore. A product of Moore's wisdom and his over 60 years experience as a brilliant and productive scholar, From Genesis to Genetics will bring understanding to both citizens and scientists who are grappling with the contentious issues of science and religion, evolution and creationism."
