Summary

Most people, when they contemplate the living world, conclude that it is a designed place. But, what most people see as design, biologists say that it is only an illusion. Here, the author takes up the question of design as a very real problem in biology, and also proposes a solution which poses challenges to all sides in this critical debate.
