Darwin's Nemesis
Full Product Description
With the publication of Darwin on Trial in 1991, Cal Berkeley legal scholar Phillip Johnson became the leading figure in the intelligent design movement.
Exposing and calling into question the philosophical foundations of Darwinism, Johnson led the charge against this largely unquestioned philosophy of materialistic reductionism and its purported basis in scientific research.
This book reviews and celebrates the life and thought of Phillip Johnson and the movement for which he has served as chief architect.
Editors William A. Dembski and Jed C. Macosko present eighteen essays by those who have known and worked with Phil for more than a decade. They provide personal and in-depth insight into the man, his convictions and his leadership of the intellectual movement that called into question the hegemony of Darwinian theory.

Darwin's Nemesis
J.Nicholas Latham, via The Good Book StallPhillip Johnson is the doyen of the Intelligent design (I.D.) movement, providing a ‘legal analyst’s instinct for focusing attention on the most important and most vulnerable aspects of the Darwinian system, particularly that its essential foundation is in naturalistic philosophy rather than in observation or experiment.’
These nineteen contributions from his collaborators and some critics (a pleasing aspect of the book) do assume previous knowledge from the reader, but neatly summarise the current debate which is increasingly highlighted in what is taught in secondary and higher education around the World. A Challenging book (not bed time reading) which informs, debates and persuades, and which is acknowledged not to be the final word.
