The 22 February, 2008, issue of La Liberation, one of France’s best-known dailies, carried a report headed "The Attractiveness of Islamic Creationism." The article, which noted Harun Yahya’s determined stand against Darwinism, went on to say this about the Atlas of Creation:

A Turkish writer by the name of Harun Yahya introduced himself by sending copies of his glossy and voluminous book The Atlas of Creation to countless schools and universities in Europe and America.
