Science advisers give fresh boost to evolution - Science- msnbc.com

 

In a newly published report, scientific advisers to the government emphasize the importance of teaching evolution in public schools.

The report by the National Academy of Sciences and its Institute of Medicine follows up on similar past publications, the last of which came out in 1999. The new document, titled "Science, Evolution and Creationism," includes recently discovered evidence supporting evolution — including the 375 million-year-old "Tiktaalik" fossil, which researchers say blends characteristics of a crocodile and a fish.
