Publisher Description
“Signature in the Cell is a defining work in the discussion of life’s origins and the question of whether life is a product of unthinking matter or of an intelligent mind. For those who disagree with ID, the powerful case Meyer presents cannot be ignored in any honest debate. For those who may be sympathetic to ID, on the fence, or merely curious, this book is an engaging, eye-opening, and often eye-popping read” — American Spectator Named one of the top books of 2009 by the Times Literary Supplement (London), this controversial and compelling book from Dr. Stephen C. Meyer presents a convincing new case for intelligent design (ID), based on revolutionary discoveries in science and DNA. Along the way, Meyer argues that Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution as expounded in The Origin of Species did not, in fact, refute ID. If you enjoyed Francis Collins’s The Language of God, you’ll find much to ponder—about evolution, DNA, and intelligent design—in Signature in the Cell.
Customer Reviews
dishonest
this book is full of lies of omission. if you decide to read it, make sure to fact-check its key claims and read about the background of the people Meyers defends. the general writing style is also pretty patronizing
Terrific Read
I enjoy his reasoned approach and systematic exploration of his topic. The portion I especially enjoyed was in the appendix, where he discusses the most recent scientific conclusion that "junk DNA" is not junk at all, but appears to basically contain an "operating system." Thanks, Stephen, for your excellent work.
