520 _a "A lightning rod for more than a century, the subject of evolution continues to be a highly volatile one. Just as Charles Darwin's remarkable announcement generated a venomous response, here in the twenty-first century the theory of evolution is still frequently greeted with alarm, ridicule, and denial. Yet, it has managed to persevere, taking on a life of its own and holding steadfast against attack."
