Jared Diamond is considered a scientist and he is probably the most respected pro-evolution author in the world today. His degree is in Geography.
This is incorrect. Dr. Diamond received his undergrad in physiology (from Harvard) and his PhD in physiology and biophysics (from Cambridge). Most of his work - outside his popular science writings - has been in ecology. He is one of the founders of the field of conservation biology, and has done extensive field work that has significantly enhanced knowledge in such diverse areas of my field as ecological assembly rules, landscape-based ecological design of protected areas, and extinction risk. Although probably best known for his pop sci books, he IS a respected scientist. I wouldn't, however, go so far as to claim he is the "most respected pro-evolution writer". There are quite a number of other authors that could legitimately claim that distinction.
