Tina KleissThe book's authors, Richard and Tina Kleiss, have been public school science teachers for many years. Richard holds a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering and worked as an engineer for 13 years before returning to school to earn a teaching degree inchemistry, physics, and mathematics. He taught both junior and senior high school science and math courses for 15 years. Tina has a B.S. and M.A. degree in education. She has taught elementary and junior high science for over 32 years. As science teachers, the Kleisses had a particular interest in the question of origins. Their research led them to the discovery that the scientific evidence overwhelmingly supports creation. After witnessing evolution being presented as a fact in the media and textbooks while the evidence for creation was being systematically excluded, the authors decided to continue their study, compile their findings, and write A Closer Look at the Evidence as a resource for others. For over a decade the Kleisses have taught classes and given seminars on creation/evolution to audiences ranging from kindergarten to adult. The authors have currently retired from public education in order to devote full time to bringing seminars on the evidence for creation to both students and adults. Read More Read Less
