There's a booklet, about 12 pages, available from the American Astronomical
Society that might be of interest. It explains how scientists have
determined the age of the universe. It's on glossy paper and has a number of
color photos. The final page discusses science and religion. There are
several references to evolution sprinkled in it, and there's a page of
references in the back. All in all a good intro to the subject of the
universe's age.
