Is evolution fact or fancy? Is natural selection an unsupported hypothesis or a confirmed mechanism of evolutionary change?

Darwin's theory of evolution is accepted by most educated Americans as simple fact, but 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 may have been created?

Berkeley law professor Phillip Johnson looks at the case for evolution with a lawyer's cold, dispassionate eye for logic and proof. What he finds is that scientists have put the cart before the horse: they have prematurely accepted Darwin's theory and have since been scrambling to back it up, mostly unsuccessfully. As the difficulties piled up, scientists have clung to the theory out of fear of encouraging religious fundamentalism, but in the process, they have turned Darwinism into a religion of its own.

Johnson'srelentless pursuit to follow the evidence wherever it leads remains as relevant today as it has ever been.

Recensies van critici

“Frederick Davidson, as the narrator, handles the material at just the right tempo, making it easy to evaluate what is being read.”

(St. Louis Post)

“This cogent, succinct inquiry cuts like a knife through neo-Darwinist assumptions.”

(Publishers Weekly)

“Darwin on Trial is unquestionably the best critique of Darwinism I have ever read. Professor Johnson combines a broad knowledge of biology with the incisive logic of a leading legal scholar to deliver a brilliant and devastating attack on the whole edifice of Darwinian belief.”

(Michael Denton, author of Evolution: A Theory in Crisis)

“Dissecting the writings of Gould, Futuyama, Darwin, and Dawkins with a trenchant sword, law professor Johnson uses an attorney’s reasoning to scrutinize the scientists’ logic in defining the theory of evolution.”

(Library Journal)

It's a high quality little piece of criticism towards the Darwinistic dogma. I find it interesting that it's so badly rated here without a single word of critique - just ratings, no reviews, no arguments ...

Well-formulated criticism of scientific dogmatism
