Paul Bruggink asks "for one recent mass market book that makes the scientific case for evolution."
No question in my mind, THE book that best fits that description is "Coming to Peace with Science" by Darrel Falk (IV Press, 2004).? It isn't clear whether you were asking for a book from a Christian perspective?(which this is, Falk is a biology Prof. at Point Loma Nazarene), but this is the best accessible presentation I have seen from any perspective?of the evidence that evolution has happened.? Maybe the lack of such "making the case" books (at least that I am aware of)?from non-Christian sources reflects that it is mostly only Christians who need convincing at that basic level.
The book by Francis Collins also makes the scientific case to some extent, but Falk's book is much stronger in that regard.
