About this ebook

Darwin is an emperor who has no clothes— but it takes a brave man to say so. Jonathan Wells, a microbiologist with two Ph.D.s (from Berkeley and Yale), is that brave man. Most textbooks on evolution are written by Darwinists with an ideological ax to grind. Brave dissidents—qualified scientists—who try to teach or write about intelligent design are silenced and sent to the academic gulag. But fear not: Jonathan Wells is a liberator. He unmasks the truth about Darwinism— why it is wrong and what the real evidence is. He also supplies a revealing list of "Books You’re Not Supposed to Read" (as far as the Darwinists are concerned) and puts at your fingertips all the evidence you need to challenge the most closed-minded Darwinist.

Ratings and reviews

The complete lack of science literacy, the omission of findings of current science, the dredging up of arguments that are decades old, just undid me. The guy, who is a Moonie and has frequently stated that 'Father' (Reverend Moon) sent him to school specifically to undermine the science of evolution, obviously injects a religion bias into his supposedly scientific 'findings'. There is no such thing as 'Darwinism' as it is not an ideology except in the mind of fundamentalists. Evolutionary biology, geology, and cosmology are sciences, 'Darwinism' isn't. There is so much bad science in this book, I couldn't make myself finish it.

I have just looked at the incorrect guide to Darwinism and ID. My immediate thoughts are why this was included in an otherwise excellent collection. Freedom of the press can be championed without encouraging such misguided attempts.

An excellent summary of all the reasons why it is legitimate to doubt Darwinian evolution.

About the author

The list of Regnery authors reads like a "who's who" of conservative thought, action, and history.
