Meyer's book is a great combination of history, philosophy and science. I especially enjoyed the historical backstory that explained how scientists and philosophers began changing their minds concerning the separation of the organic and inorganic. I agree with one reviwer that the auto-biographical style of the book is distracting at times, but the substance of the arguments are sound, closely reasoned, and well illustrated. Meyer's work represents a distinct constellation of historical/philosophical reasons why one should be suspicious of neo-Darwinian scientific claims; especially as these claims lead to, not scientific conclusions, but dogma. As such, it fills a role in the ID literature that cannot be filled by other seminal works. Those seeking a comprehensive idea of ID claims must take Meyer's approach into account.Get more detail about Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design.
