This review is from: Intelligent Design: Science or Religion? Critical Perspectives (Contemporary Issue Series) (Paperback)
I ordered this book pre-publication in Dec 06 based on the blurb that this would be a "balanced collection of recent articles, proponents of both sides of this controversial issue present their points of view" and "a point-counterpoint section, where opposing viewpoints are directly contrasted." That isn't what got published. The content is a polemic. I'm not interested in religion, but rather in what I think are unanswered issues in evolutionary theory and in some of the questions from creditable scientists with potential "intelligent design" implications. Behe, Demski, Wells, and all the rest are missing. Something must have changed in the planning for the book. As a discussion of evolutionary theory and religion it does a creditable job, with a "vanquish the enemy" mentality. But, we're going to have to wait for the serious point-counterpoint book...we're still held hostage by the press and the advocacy specialists.
