Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Berkeley law professor challenges scientific naturalism. An attempt to reduce science to an ideology which must be accepted on faith. Since Creationism has to be accepted on faith, the two are equivalent in that respect according to the author. Evolution has to be accepted by faith therefore. There is a type of lawyer who thinks any subject can be discussed by means of logic alone without bothering to learn the actual subject. He is such a lawyer. To describe the book as shallow would be charitable. The scientific illiiteracy exhibited by the author is truly shocking. Useful to understand the peurile drivel this movement espouses and reveals the intellectual bankrutcy of modern evangelical Christianity. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Is evolution fact or fancy? Is natural selection an unsupported hypothesis or a confirmed mechanism of evolutionary change? These were the courageous questions that professor of law Phillip Johnson originally took up in 1991. His relentless pursuit to follow the evidence wherever it leads remains as relevant today as then. The facts and the logic of the arguments that purport to establish a theory of evolution based on Darwinian principles, says Johnson, continue to draw their strength from faith--faith in philosophical naturalism. In this edition Johnson responds to critics of the first edition and maintains that scientists have put the cart before the horse, regarding as scientific fact what really should be regarded as a yet unproved hypothesis. Also included is a new, extended introduction by noted biologist Michael Behe, who chronicles the ongoing relevance of Johnson's cogent analysis. - Publisher.
