The New York Times bestselling author of Darwin's Doubt, Stephen
Meyer, presents groundbreaking scientific evidence of the existence of
God, based on breakthroughs in physics, cosmology, and biology.
Beginning in the late 19th century, many intellectuals began to insist
that scientific knowledge conflicts with traditional theistic
belief--that science and belief in God are "at war." Philosopher of
science Stephen Meyer challenges this view by examining three scientific
discoveries with decidedly theistic implications. Building on the case
for the intelligent design of life that he developed in Signature in
the Cell and Darwin's Doubt, Meyer demonstrates how discoveries in
cosmology and physics coupled with those in biology help to establish
the identity of the designing intelligence behind life and the universe.
Meyer argues that theism--with its affirmation of a transcendent,
intelligent and active creator--best explains the evidence we have
concerning biological and cosmological origins. Previously Meyer
refrained from attempting to answer questions about "who" might have
designed life. Now he provides an evidence-based answer to perhaps the
ultimate mystery of the universe. In so doing, he reveals a stunning
conclusion: the data support not just the existence of an intelligent
designer of some kind--but the existence of a personal God.
