Potholer54 has been a journalist for 20 years, 14 years as a science correspondent. His degree is in geology, but while working for a science magazine and several science programs he had to tackle a number of different fields, from quantum physics to microbiology. His particular talent was his ignorance. By not understanding half of what he was assigned to cover, he had to reduce scientific discoveries from the complex to the simple. If he wrote it in a way that he could understand it, then his readers could understand it.

This series explains the scientific evidence for our origins, from the Big Bang to the human migration out of Africa, in a way that most 7th-graders would understand. It challenges people who believe we were created by a deity 6,000 years ago to confront the evidence instead of ignoring it.
A DVD (including corrections) will be available for schools and educational groups.
