It's interesting, while they normally target the mechanism(s) of evolution, in this book they mostly seem to go after common descent. Not surprisingly, since their target audience didn't come from no monkey.
The caller to the radio show were all YECs (one called to relate his "astute observation" (BarryA) of how a big rainfall carved out a mini canyon somewhere, proving that it's just an assumption that it took a long time to produce the Grand Canyon; haven't we heard that before) and both BarryA and Luskin did their best to point out the "big tent" of ID and how both OECs and YECs subscribe to it. Luskin seemed kind of reluctant to say that a young earth is still a possibility, though. I thought by now he would be able to tell every lie with a straight face, but apparently even he has his limits.
BarryA, OTOH, declared Luskin a "renaissance man" after reading Luskin's "credentials", which proves that BarryA knows no shame.
