Resumen del Editor
Michael J. Behe launched the intelligent design movement with his first book, Darwin's Black Box, by demonstrating that Darwinism could not account for the complexity of biochemistry. Now he takes a giant leap forward. In The Edge of Evolution, Behe uses astounding new findings from the genetics revolution to show that Darwinism is nowhere near as powerful as most people believe. Genetic analysis of malaria, E. coli, and the HIV virus over tens of thousands of generations, not to mention analysis of the entire history of the genetic struggle between them and "us" (humans), make it possible for the first time to determine the precise rates, and likelihood, of random mutations of varying kinds. We now know, as never before, what Darwinism can and cannot accomplish. The answers turn conventional science on its head and are certain to be hotly debated by millions. After The Edge of Evolution, life in the universe will never look the same.

Historia
What is life? Humans have been asking this question for thousands of years. But as technology has advanced and our understanding of biology has deepened, the answer has evolved. For decades, scientists have been exploring the limits of nature by modifying and manipulating DNA, cells, and whole organisms to create new ones that could never have previously existed on their own.

In Arrival of the Fittest, renowned evolutionary biologist Andreas Wagner draws on over 15 years of research to present the missing piece in Darwin's theory. Using experimental and computational technologies that were heretofore unimagined, he has found that adaptations are not just driven by chance, but by a set of laws that allow nature to discover new molecules and mechanisms in a fraction of the time that random variation would take.

The Blind Watchmaker, knowledgably narrated by author Richard Dawkins, is as prescient and timely a book as ever. The watchmaker belongs to the 18th-century theologian William Paley, who argued that just as a watch is too complicated and functional to have sprung into existence by accident, so too must all living things, with their far greater complexity, be purposefully designed. Charles Darwin's brilliant discovery challenged the creationist arguments; but only Richard Dawkins could have written this elegant riposte.

In movies, in novels, in comic strips, and on television, we've all seen dinosaurs - or at least somebody's educated guess of what they would look like. But what if it were possible to build, or grow, a real dinosaur without finding ancient DNA? Jack Horner, the scientist who advised Steven Spielberg on the blockbuster film Jurassic Park and a pioneer in bringing paleontology into the 21st century, teams up with the editor of the New York Times's Science Times section to reveal exactly what's in store.

The cells in our bodies consist of molecules, made up of the same carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms found in air and rocks. But molecules, such as water and sugar, are not alive. So how do our cells - assemblies of otherwise "dead" molecules - come to life, and together constitute a living being? In Life’s Ratchet, physicist Peter M. Hoffmann locates the answer to this age-old question at the nanoscale.

The language of genes has become common parlance. We know they make your eyes blue, your hair curly or your nose straight. The media tells us that our genes control the risk of cancer, heart disease, alcoholism or Alzheimer's. The cost of DNA sequencing has plummeted from billions of pounds to a few hundred, and gene-based advances in medicine hold huge promise. So we've all heard of genes, but how do they actually work?

Philosophers and theologians have pondered these questions for millennia, but startling scientific discoveries over the past half century are revealing that we live in a world driven by chance. A Series of Fortunate Events tells the story of the awesome power of chance and how it is the surprising source of all the beauty and diversity in the living world.

In The Ancestor's Tale, evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins offers a masterwork: an exhilarating reverse tour through evolution, from present-day humans back to the microbial beginnings of life four billion years ago. Throughout the journey, Dawkins spins entertaining, insightful stories and sheds light on topics such as speciation, sexual selection, and extinction. The Ancestor's Tale is at once an essential education in evolutionary theory and riveting in its telling.

Historia
In The Equations of Life, biologist Charles S. Cockell makes the forceful argument that the laws of physics narrowly constrain how life can evolve, making evolution's outcomes predictable. If we were to find something very much like a lady bug eating something very much like an aphid on a distant planet, we shouldn't be surprised. The forms of life are guided by a limited set of rules, and, as a result, there is a narrow set of solutions to the challenges of existence.

Where did I come from? Why do I have two arms but just one head? How is my left leg the same size as my right one? Why are the fingerprints of identical twins not identical? How did my brain learn to learn? Why must I die? Questions like these remain biology's deepest and most ancient challenges. They force us to confront a fundamental biological problem: How can something as large and complex as a human body organize itself from the simplicity of a fertilized egg?

Naming Darwin's Black Box to the National Review's list of the 100 most important nonfiction works of the 20th century, George Gilder wrote that it "overthrows Darwin at the end of the 20th century in the same way that quantum theory overthrew Newton at the beginning". Discussing the book in the New Yorker in May 2005, H. Allen Orr said of Behe, "He is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known."

When Charles Darwin finished The Origin of Species, he thought that he had explained every clue but one. Though his theory could explain many facts, Darwin knew that there was a significant event in the history of life that his theory did not explain. During this event, the "Cambrian explosion", many animals suddenly appeared in the fossil record without apparent ancestors in earlier layers of rock. In Darwin's Doubt, Stephen C. Meyer tells the story of the mystery surrounding this explosion of animal life.

Historia
More than 30 years after his landmark book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis (1985), biologist Michael Denton revisits his thesis about the inability of Darwinian evolution to explain the history of life. 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 still unsupported by the series of adaptive transitional forms predicted by Darwin. Denton makes a provocative new argument about the pervasiveness of nonadaptive order throughout biology, order that cannot be explained by the Darwinian mechanism.

Naming Darwin's Black Box to the National Review's list of the 100 most important nonfiction works of the 20th century, George Gilder wrote that it "overthrows Darwin at the end of the 20th century in the same way that quantum theory overthrew Newton at the beginning". Discussing the book in the New Yorker in May 2005, H. Allen Orr said of Behe, "He is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known."

Historia
When Charles Darwin finished The Origin of Species, he thought that he had explained every clue but one. Though his theory could explain many facts, Darwin knew that there was a significant event in the history of life that his theory did not explain. During this event, the "Cambrian explosion", many animals suddenly appeared in the fossil record without apparent ancestors in earlier layers of rock. In Darwin's Doubt, Stephen C. Meyer tells the story of the mystery surrounding this explosion of animal life.

Throughout his distinguished and unconventional career, engineer-turned-molecular-biologist Douglas Axe has been asking the questions that much of the scientific community would rather silence. Now, he presents his conclusions in this brave and pioneering book. Axe argues that the key to understanding our origin is the "design intuition" - the innate belief held by all humans that tasks we would need knowledge to accomplish can be accomplished only by someone who has that knowledge.

Historia
More than 30 years after his landmark book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis (1985), biologist Michael Denton revisits his thesis about the inability of Darwinian evolution to explain the history of life. 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 still unsupported by the series of adaptive transitional forms predicted by Darwin. Denton makes a provocative new argument about the pervasiveness of nonadaptive order throughout biology, order that cannot be explained by the Darwinian mechanism.

Historia
Darwin's theory of evolution is accepted by most educated Americans as simple fact. This easy acceptance, however, hides from us the many ways in which evolution - as an idea - shapes our thinking about a great many things. What if this idea is wrong? What if "evolution" is just a word that covers up scientific ignorance of how the wonders of the living world could have been created? Berkeley law professor Phillip Johnson looks at the evidence for Darwinistic evolution the way a lawyer would - with a cold dispassionate eye for logic and proof.

In a culture in which science is believed to hold the answers to every question, spiritual realities like the soul are often ignored or ridiculed. We are told that neuroscience holds the key to explaining every aspect of human behavior. Yet Christian philosopher J. P. Moreland argues that scripture, sound philosophical reasoning, and everyday experience all point to the reality of an immaterial soul.

The Earth teems with life: in its oceans, forests, skies, and cities. Yet there's a black hole at the heart of biology. We do not know why complex life is the way it is, or, for that matter, how life first began. In The Vital Question, award-winning author and biochemist Nick Lane radically reframes evolutionary history, putting forward a solution to conundrums that have puzzled generations of scientists.

Militant atheism is on the rise. In recent years, Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, and Christopher Hitchens have produced a steady stream of best-selling books denigrating religious belief. These authors are merely the leading edge of a larger movement that includes much of the scientific community. In response, mathematician David Berlinski, himself a secular Jew, delivers a biting defense of religious thought.

At every moment, within our bodies and all around us, trillions of microscopic combatants are waging a war that shapes our health and life on Earth. Countless times per second, viruses known as phages attack and destroy bacteria while leaving all other life forms, including us, unscathed. Vastly outnumbering the viruses that do us harm, phages power ecosystems, drive evolutionary innovation, and harbor a remarkable capacity to heal life-threatening infections when conventional antibiotics fail. Yet most of us have never heard of them, thinking of viruses only as enemies to be feared.

Excellento Manifesto
Very well thought out presentation of some difficult facts. Evolutionists.... the clock is ticking and your time is almost up. If it wasn't for the public indoctrination centers continuing to corrupt young undeveloped minds, I would say that the theory of Evolution will go to the same place that Al Gores global warming scam is already at.

Design In The Molecular World
This was an excellent read as it bolstered my belief in the " Grand Designer " while raising the eyes of my friends in the Materialistic World still not being able to explain the Cambrian Explosion in a rational scientific manner. It is in the hidden world of the molecular biology that science in a purposeful and deceitful way hide from school children that there is a designer as they know all to well that they are short millions of years to produce man as he is today. I let you call the designer what you may but I call him God. This book is pure science but I will wait for science to be forthcoming with their explanation of the Cambrian Explosion and then move on to the tough questions like finding how to make sense out of an old man named Darwin who left England twice in his life yet was able to write a book basically out of nonsensical science as he knew it in the 19th century. His book should be called Extreme Conjecture and what was his one doubt? Yes, That's Correct. The period of time where higher forms of animals showed up nearly overnight with no lower animals first after all, That's Evolution in a nutshell. I am convinced science has discovered design but do not hold your breath waiting for them to actually let it be known, as the pillars that hold biology up would turn to dust. The hidden world of science and the scientists that keep this information quiet are the real gangsters of this world and would like to be around to watch them explain away their pure dogma to God, The Designer of us All. They are directly responsible for moving our children away from God and that my good folks is not your run of the mill sin. NASA scientists have to sneak to church if they discount the evolution of man, and if they dare to mention it at work they are fired and there are employees suing NASA for stopping RESEARCH into evolution. NASA exists for one reason and that is to find life anywhere but earth. There would be a cure for Cancer if it were not for Congressmen giving them trillions over the years, but the cure will come out of Europe as they have taken the shackles of their researchers years ago, as science stops when you have preconceived notions and that is our Achilles Tendon in the USA, along with Pharmaceutical Giants. What are we becoming folks when we let complacency rule our life's? This book will give you the keys to the Castle but get ready for a shock and if you re a fence straddeler push you over to an All Loving God and Eternity.

Hox genes 50 million years before the Cambrian!!
Dr. Behe lucidly explores yet many more inadequacies of a theory conceived more than a 100 years before genes and molecular machines and in a time when the cell was still a mere "drop of undifferentiated plasm".

scientific and worshipful experience
I liked this book. Reader was perfect. I have a technical background, and what I didn't hear (but usually do in such a book) was some howler of a mispronunciation or complete mis-understanding of text ending up with wrong emphasis. The book is persuasive, though it has a bit of a blind spot: yes, it is impossible to see that a particularly complex design happened by chance, but I'm didn't hear any calculation of how SOME design that solved the problem was possible by random mutation. But, still, looking below the gross anatomy level to the biochemical level makes it hard to see how there was enough time to come up with the complexity that we see in the world.
This book makes a distinction between evolution and common descent. It firmly agrees with the 2nd, but also with evolution, but with limits.
I'd recommend both this book and "The Language of God" for those who are willing to dig deep into a science book. I find doing so a worshipful experience, and all the more so if the writer is a believer.

Thought provoking
I don't think the debate of evolution is over and Michael Behe keeps the rational of thought and reason in check. I find the more and more I know the less and less evolution is viable. It becomes an ever increasing decent into intellectual suicide to support evolution as Darwin presents it. Michael Behe presents clear and thought provoking insights that for me, further push me away from Darwinism and its absurdities.

Fascinating
This is a fascinating and in depth explanation of the complexity of life, and why the theory of random, undirected mutation is simply not an adequate causative agent to drive evolution. Not only is there no scientific evidence to support the theory at the molecular level, but a look into the complex sophistication of irriducibly complex nano machines within a single cell drives home the point that one simply can't gaze upon complex design without knowing there must be designer.
I've often argued that should one be walking through a forest and stumble upon a perfectly formed wooden bowl or even a simple, square wooden table with four perfectly even wooden legs, one would NEVER gaze in wonder at how all of the available resources of wood and natural errosive forces of wind, water and sand could, given enough time and random atmospheric events, have formed them. The design alone tells us that someone designed the bowl and the table even though each is composed simply of wood and designed with the simplest of shapes; a hollowed half sphere and a square with four columnar legs. Each are remarkably simple, but undeniably designed.
How much more so then, when we gaze into the intricacies of a single cell at the molecular level. As a young college student, I first accepted the theory of evolution as fact, but the more I studied genetics and cellular biology, the more implausible that theory became in my mind. Now, 30 years later, advancements in technology and research simply confirm every doubt I had back then.

A great read of the previous uncomprehend world
An ethically challenging view of what we assumed we knew about our own Biochemistry. I greatly appreciated the examples of the Malaria cell as well as HIV to demonstrate the limits of mutations as well as evolution. The fact that you can numerically quantity and demonstrate probability for the extend of genetic changes needed to produce new evolutionary structures is very interesting. Regardless of your like or dislike for the idea of intelligent design, Behe does a thorough job of sharing what is reasonable in biochemistry and what is at the extreme edge of it.
