The Best Evolution Book of Darwin’s Year Shows That Darwinism Does Not Work
Joel Kontinen
The Times Literary Supplement has chosen Dr. Stephen C. Meyer’s Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design (HarperCollins) as one of the best books of the year.
The book was chosen by Thomas Nagel, a philosopher at the University of New York, who says he is an atheist. Dr. Meyer’s book shows that the cell is so sophisticated that Darwinian mechanisms cannot explain its origin. It speaks of intelligent design.
Darwinism cannot explain the origin of genetic information.
The Times Literary Supplement (TSL) is perhaps the most prestigious literary magazine in Europe. Each year, it announces its list of ten best books. Initially, the TLS was published as a supplement of The Times. Since 1914 it has been an independent magazine.
Although we have celebrated Darwin’s double anniversary this year, pro-evolution books have failed to win any awards.
Amazon has also chosen Signature in the Cell as one of the best books of the year.
