Description
Evolution Still a Theory in Crisis by Michael Denton Thirty years after his groundbreaking work, biologist Michael Denton revisits his earlier thesis about the limitations of Darwinian evolution. He argues that despite its widespread acceptance, there remains significant evidence to challenge the theory's ability to explain the history of life. Denton contends that many fundamental divisions in the natural order remain unexplained by the predictions of Darwinian cumulative selection. He also presents a new argument about the pervasiveness of nonadaptive order throughout biology, which cannot be accounted for by the Darwinian mechanism. This thought-provoking work invites readers to reconsider their understanding of evolution and its role in shaping the diversity of life on Earth.
