Naravno da je u Hrvatskoj, kao i opæenito u Europi, utjecaj kreacionistièkih ideja znatno slabiji, pa ova knjiga i nije toliko neophodna. Ipak, pisana na vrlo popularan naèin mo¾e poslu¾iti kao zanimljivo dodatno ¹tivo u uèionicama, ali i kao temeljna informacija svima koje ova tema zanima.

Pored navedene knjige na stranicama NAS besplatno je, ili uz razmjerno malu nadoknadu, dostupno jo¹ mnogo knjiga u PDF formatu: http://www.nap.edu

The National Academies has release a third edition of "Science, Evolution and Creationism". The booklet explains the fundamental methods of science, documents the overwhelming evidence in support of evolution and evaluates alternative perspectives, such as intelligent design. The book presents the scientific and legal reasons for not teaching creationist ideas in public school science classes. Finally the book tries to show that science and religion should be viewed as different ways of understanding the world rather than conflicting frameworks. The publication is meant to be a resource for educators, students, teachers, community leaders, legislators, policy makers and
parents.

The 88-page booklet is accompanied by an 8-page summary brochure. Printed copies of both can be made available for free or at costs depending on the number needed.

The PDF of the publication and a summary are available online at: http://www.nap.edu/sec. 

In addition a web cast of a press briefing on January 4, 2008 as well as the press release are available at: http://nationalacademies.org/morenews/20080104.html
