The other answer is incorrect. Evaporation isn't just water being absorbed into the atmosphere at all...
There are differences between the two. Evaporation can occur at temperatures lower than the boiling point of a substance. Also evaporation occurs only at the surface of a liquid. With boiling however vapour can arise from inside the body of the substance (you know when a substance is boiling because you see bubbles...). Boiling and evaporation are different. Boiling occurs when the vapor pressure of a substance, equals the atmospheric pressure on the liquid. So evaporation just occurs at a higher rate when something has reached boiling point.
