Product Description
Endorsed by William Dembski, Ph.D., the scientist at the forefront of the intelligent–design movement.
Darwin might have thought twice about publishing his theories if he had had access to today’s medical and microbiological discoveries. Drawing on years of research, Dr. Simmons demonstrates that the almost infinite complexity of the human anatomy simply could not have developed by chance. For example:
- the body runs on “battery power”from the hundreds of mitochondria in each cell
- the two sexes—evolutionary theory cannot explain why they exist
- every cell is its own pharmacist, chemist, and metallurgist
Accessible, clearly presented, and utterly fascinating,
What Darwin Didn’t Know shows the human body to be a marvelous system constructed by an infinitely wise Designer.
Reader ReviewsThis book is unique in that it comes from a medical/physiological point of view. It is the first book in over thirty years that looks at the complexity of the human body as it pertains to evolution. In the early 70's a book entitled The Body has a Head was published. It was virtually unreadable. Dr. Simmons book is eminently readable and very interesting. Furthermore, Darwin had several doubts about his own theories and Dr. Simmons points out these areas of weakness. If you want to learn something about the arguments surrounding evolution and don't want to have to read a scientific tome, this is the book for you.
