<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>From within the highest ranks of the scientific community comes a startling new theory of creation that not only contradicts Darwinian orthodoxy but opens the door to theological arguments biologists have dismissed and ridiculed for more than a century.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Darwin's Black Box</i> helped to launch the Intelligent Design movement: the argument that nature exhibits evidence of design, beyond Darwinian randomness. Today, with the movement stronger than ever, Michael J. Behe updates the book with an important new Afterword on the state of the debate. <p/><i>--Time</i> <p/>Naming <i>Darwin's Black Box</i> to the National Review's list of the 100 most important nonfiction works of the twentieth century, George Gilder wrote that it "overthrows Darwin at the end of the twentieth century in the same way that quantum theory overthrew Newton at the beginning." Discussing the book in <i>The New Yorker</i> in May 2005, H. Allen Orr said of Behe, "he is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known." From one end of the spectrum to the other, <i>Darwin's Black Box</i> has established itself as the key text in the Intelligent Design movement--the one argument that must be addressed in order to determine whether Darwinian evolution is sufficient to explain life as we know it, or not. <p/> For this edition, Behe has written a major new Afterword tracing the state of the debate in the decade since it began. It is his first major new statement on the subject and will be welcomed by the thousands who wish to continue this intense debate.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[Behe] is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known. -- H. Allen Orr in <i>The New Yorker</i><br><br>A persuasive book. It will speak to the layman and perhaps even to professional evolutionists as well, if they are able to suspend for a little while their own judgment about origins, the ultimate black box. -- <i>The Washington Times</i><br><br>An argument of great originality, elegance, and intellectual power. . . . No one can propose to defend Darwin without meeting the challenges set out in this superbly written and compelling book. -- David Berlinski, author of <i>A Tour of the Calculus</i><br><br>Overthrows Darwin at the end of the twentieth century in the same way that quantum theory overthrew Newton at the beginning. -- George Gilder in <i>National Review</i><br><br>When examined with the powerful tools of modern biology, but not with its modern prejudices, life on a biochemical level can be a product, Behe says, only of intelligent design. Coming from a practicing biologist. . . this proposition is close to heretical. -- <i>The New York Times Book Review</i><br>
