Whether you've seen the current production at the Cleveland Playhouse, you probably remember "Inherit the Wind." After all, it depicts the legendary Trial of the Century, which, as many legends do, turns out to have been a bit of a sham. Local author and Case Western Reserve University professor Mano Singham tells the story behind the trial and the history of the 80-year battle between religious fundamentalism and science that has played out in our nation's public school classrooms. Join us Tuesday morning at 9 for a conversation with the author of God vs. Darwin.Mano Singham Director of University Center for Innovation in Teaching and Education and Adjunct Associate Professor of Physics, Case Western Reserve University
