Evolution by Michael Denton

Evolution by Michael Denton

More than thirty 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.

Michael Denton holds an MD from Bristol University and a PhD in Biochemistry from King's College in London. Formerly a Senior Research Fellow in the Biochemistry Department at the University of Otago in New Zealand, he is currently a Senior Fellow with the Center for Science and Culture at Discovery Institute. His previous books include The Wonder of Water, Fire-Maker, Evolution: Still a Theory in Crisis, Nature's Destiny, and Evolution: A Theory in Crisis. His scientific articles have appeared in science journals such as Nature and Human Genetics.
