Debating Design
From Darwin to DNA
This volume provides prehensive and even-handed overview
of the debate concerning biological origins. This has been a contro-
versial debate ever since Darwin published On the Origin of Species in
1859. Invariably, the source of controversy has been design. Is the
appearance of design anisms as exhibited in their functional
complexity the result of purely natural forces acting without prevision
or teleology? Or does the appearance of design signify genuine previ-
sion and teleology, and, if so, is that design empirically detectable and
thus open to scientific inquiry? Four main positions have emerged
in response to these questions: Darwinism, anization, theistic
evolution, and intelligent design.
In this unique survey, leading figures in the debate argue for their
respective positions in a nontechnical, accessible style. Readers are
thus invited to draw their own conclusions. Two introductory essays
furnish a historical overview of the debate.
There is parable collection of this kind. Debating Design will
eagerly be sought out by professionals in philosophy, the history of
science, biology, and religious studies.
