Evolution

Still a Theory in Crisis

By: Michael Denton

Narrated by: John McLain

More than 30 years after his landmark book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis (1985), biologist Michael Denton revisits his earlier thesis about the inability of Darwinian evolution to explain the history of life. He argues that there remains "an irresistible consilience of evidence for rejecting Darwinian cumulative selection as the major driving force of evolution." From the origin of life to the origin of human language, the great divisions in the natural order are still as profound as ever, and they are still unsupported by the series of adaptive transitional forms predicted by Darwin. In addition, Denton makes a provocative new argument about the pervasiveness of nonadaptive order throughout biology, order that cannot be explained by the Darwinian mechanism.

Very technical, but very good

Presents detailed carefully arranged evidence and argument that some kind of structuralist/typological logic undergirds the order of nature and the path of evolution.

Tough read

Extremely thorough and well substantiated walk through through an immensely important yppig. Somewhat above my level, but definitely Got the main points through. Impressive!

A logical and evidentiary challenge to Darwin

extremely interesting and well-organized argument using scientific discoveries to counter the premise of neo-darwinism. also and open-minded construct to being wrong, unlike so many ardent Darwin supporters.

Fascinating

When you search with a curious mind and an honest heart, the world of creation will shout out the name of the Lord. It is not random. It is not coincidental. A force like this must have intelligence. And His name is GOD.

Very helpful book.

Michael Denton holds a PhD degree in biochemistry.
He is not a Christian, and claims to be an evolutionist, but brings out that Darwin’s theory of evolution is very problematic from a scientific point of you. He is considered to be a great scientist and many other famous scientists have taken his work very seriously.
Many other scientists have found that after 150 years of investigation, Darwin’smain thesis does not hold water.
