Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection focuses on inheritance and survival without attempting to explain the forms organisms take. The first part of Form and Transformation looks critically at the conceptual structure of Darwinism and describes the limitations of the theory of evolution. The authors argue that a theory of biological form is needed to understand the structure of organisms and their transformations. The second part of the book explores such a theory by portraying organisms as developing and dynamic systems, within which gene action is understandable. The authors present a number of specific examples, including tetrapod limb formation and Drosophila development, to illustrate how these dynamic organisms produce generic forms.

Form and transformation
Ken Miller is a Christian and a biologist at Brown University, and one of the major anti-creationist debaters. I really liked this well-argued dismantling of intelligent design and other creationist arguments from a scientific perspective.
His theological reflections weren't as deep as I would have liked, but Conrad Hyers' The Meaning of Creation: Genesis and Modern Science covers that angle.
Christians really need to be informed that A)evolution is very well-supported science, and B)it doesn't conflict with the Christian faith.
When it's painted as a black and white issue with two extremes: atheistic materialists on the one hand and biblical literalist crusaders on the other, many more people are led away from the faith than towards it.
Christians -- Don't be afraid to question what you've been taught!
