“This is a clear and judicious book … Sarkar is to
be praised for his nuanced and balanced presentation of the
arguments and issues he discusses.” Kaleidoscope
“Sarkar’s scientific expositions and dissections of
Dembski’s specious arguments and Behe’s lack of
imagination are clear, surgical, and authoritative. For those who
would fear a return to the middle ages, this is the best critique
of ID now available.”
William Wimsatt, University of Chicago
“Part history, part science, and part philosophy,
Doubting Darwin? is a deft critique of the new creationism.
Sahotra Sarkar hits all the main points with economy and the broad
knowledge of a scientist-philosopher.”
Jeffrey Shallit, University of Waterloo
“The West’s simultaneous loyalty to Christianity and
science is a cognitive dissonance in our culture as a whole, most
prominently manifested in the Intelligent Design Movement. Sahotra
Sarkar’s book is a welcome attempt to apply cognitive therapy
to our culture, by talking us through the contradictions in
intelligent design.”
David Wolpert, Senior Computer Scientist at NASA
“Sahotra Sarkar lucidly and comprehensively dismantles
Intelligent Design creationism in the most powerful way: by
explaining the biology. This book summarizes the theory and
philosophy of evolution with depth and insight, and in a way that
sharply refutes the objections of creationism.”
P. Z. Myers, PhD, University of Minnesota, Morris, and author of
Pharyngula Blog
“Sarkar’s concise, elegant prose allows him to
enlighten and engage readers on every topic…a must read for
anyone interested in following the debate...”
