Amazon - God's Word or Human Reason?: An Inside Perspective on Creationism
Every creationist and everyone else should buy and read this excellent book about the overwhelming evidence for evolution.

The science in this book is excellent including for example what they wrote about ERVs:
"Common ancestry of humans and apes can be inferred from the other lines of evidences described in this chapter, but the way that shared ERVs reinforce this pattern is perhaps the strongest single indication of it, a truly powerful and decisive smoking gun."
What makes this book about the evidence for evolution unique is the authors have done everything they can to politely explain to the evolution deniers why evolution is true. It seems like half the book is about creationist ideas and the other half explains why the creationist ideas are wrong, while being extremely nice to the creationists.
I recommend this book for creationists (who unfortunately are not likely to buy it) and for everyone else who thinks evolution is the most interesting branch of science.
I suggest this book and "Why Evolution Is True" by Jerry Coyne are the two best books about evolution for people who are not biologists.
