I'll state from the outset that I don't buy into the Creationist movement, including Intelligent Design as set forth by Behe, Dembski and others. But if I did, I still wouldn't recommend this book. Not only are the arguments put forth in this book extremely weak, but Denton is in over his head when he adresses scientific subjects outside of his specialty of genetics. He demonstrates a poor understanding of chemistry, and his section on how the periodic table of the elements is fine tuned for human life is especially poor.For those who are interested in intelligent design creationism, Darwin's Black Box is a much better book - better argued, and Behe knows what he's talking about when he discusses biochemistry.If you don't believe me, take a look at the creation/evolution literature, and you'll see that Nature's Destiny is never cited, while works by Behe, Dembski and Johnson frequently are.
