Gold Medallion finalist. Is it science? Is it religion? What
exactly is the Design Revolution? Today scientists, mathematicians
and philosophers in the intelligent design movement are challenging
a certain view of science--one that limits its investigations and
procedures to purely law-like and mechanical explanations. They
charge that there is no scientific reason to exclude the
consideration of intelligence, agency and purpose from truly
scientific research. In fact, they say, the practice of science
often does already include these factors! As the intelligent design
movement has gained momentum, questions have naturally arisen to
challenge its provocative claims. In this book William A. Dembski
rises to the occasion clearly and concisely answering the most
vexing questions posed to the intelligent design program. Writing
with nonexperts in mind, Dembski responds to more than sixty
questions asked by experts and nonexperts alike who have attended
his many public lectures, as well as objections raised in written
reviews. The Design Revolution has begun. Its success depends on
how well it answers the questions of its detractors. Read this book
and you'll have a good idea of the prospects and challenges facing
this revolution in scientific thinking.
