Containing bibliographical data and brief objective descriptions of almost 2000 anti-evolutionist books, pamphlets, and tracts, and with useful biographical data on their authors, Anti-Evolution is invaluable for the serious student of creationism. Writing in Nature, Euan G Nisbet said, "Tom McIver has provided us with a splendid bestiary of anti-evolution ideas. ... It is a fascinating work ... either for a chuckle or, on those unpleasant occasions, to face up to a nightmare on the rampage." Published in 1988 and reissued in paperback, with a new introduction, in 1992 and again in 2008. McIver is a long-time member of NCSE.
