The groundbreaking, "seminal work" ( Time ) on intelligent design that dares to ask, was Darwin wrong? In 1996, Darwin's Black Box helped to launch the intelligent design movement: the argument that nature exhibits evidence of design, beyond Darwinian randomness. It sparked a national debate on evolution, which continues to intensify across the country. From one end of the spectrum to the other, Darwin's Black Box has established itself as the key intelligent design text -- the one argument that must be addressed in order to determine whether Darwinian evolution is sufficient to explain life as we know it. In a major new Afterword for this edition, Behe explains that the complexity discovered by microbiologists has dramatically increased since the book was first published. That complexity is a continuing challenge to Darwinism, and evolutionists have had no success at explaining it. Darwin's Black Box is more important today than ever.

读后感

本书甫一出版，轰动一时，的确，作为一个学生物的人，我也曾怀疑，如此复杂而美妙的生物机制，真的是进化出来的？ 在20年前，很多实验没有完成之前，就算是科学家这么想也不奇怪。 但是，现在，我们有很多证据来反驳智能设计了。 比如： 眼睛的进化： http://v.youku.com/v_...  

达尔文曾经认为纽西兰的野蛮土著需要2000年才能进化到文明。但当他看见因为基督教的引入使他们在短期内被教化，使他自己晚年也信教。 撇开宗教不谈，生命的起源一定是有设计的。进化论只是一个学说。 按那种生命的最初起源于非生命，起源于概率，起源于随机，整个宇宙的全部时...  

达尔文曾经对一个问题感到苦恼：眼睛是怎么进化来的？眼睛作为一个整体结构而言比较精巧，少了任何一个部件都很难发挥视觉功能。可是按照达尔文的想法，生物进化是渐进的，眼睛应该是一个部件一个部件地累积进化而来，可在它们累积为一个完整眼睛之前，这些部件都没有功能。那...  

如果人体这样复杂的结构确实能够按照进化顺序一点点地回溯到过去——从人到无脊椎动物到单细胞生物到无机物，那么达尔文的进化论无疑是正确的。但是问题在于：回溯的链条在中间断裂。 就像捕鼠夹不管再怎么简单都必须具备底板、弹簧、钩子和夹子四种部件，而不会有更简化版一...
