A House Built on Sand: Exposing Postmodernist Myths About Science by Noretta Koertge

A set of collected essays on the topic of evolution and creationism, which demonstrates that the evidence comes down heavily on the side of evolution. Because it is contributed papers, the quality can be a bit spotty at times, but overall a very good addition to the field.
