Interesting Book

Dembski does a nice job expanding upon other works in the Intelligent Design community. His work on information theory is particularly interesting and relavent to the subject. I especially liked the last few chapters. Would recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about Intelligent Design.

I wish the book had preserved the 40-odd chapters

The audiobook abandoned the chapter format of the print copy. Therefore it is hard to access previous chapters as cited elsewhere in the book. Book is very technical. A glossary of terms would be helpful for the lay reader from outside the discpline.

Gives a good synopsis of the I D movement.

Although Dembski's reasoning is clear, I need to go over it again to follow as clearly.

Nothing less then outstanding!

This is the best book to date that I’ve read on intelligent design. More philosophy of science, logic, and simple reasoning than direct science, and this book is a must read for any person interested in this new idea.

Not a natural transition to audio

This book contains many excellent responses to common objections to Intelligent Design, and is an must have reference for the subject.

Unfortunately, it is not really meant to be read (or listened to) from beginning to end. Questions are answered in sequence, as individual responses. The author does not assume the reader has read the book from the beginning to that point, so he repeats himself often.

So my suggestion would be to buy the printed version -- unless you don't mind highly repetitive narration of very strong arguments.
