Publisher's Summary
The New York Times best-selling author of Darwin’s Doubt 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.

Beautifully structured and personally compelling
Stephen has an outstanding mind and is a gifted communicator of complex ideas. He has a deep grasp of physics, cosmology and molecular biology. Together with these, his philosophical wisdom and his personal experience ensure a coherent discussion with respectful consideration of his opponents. If you believe in God read this book. If you don't believe in God this book will give you reasons to ensure you are not making the biggest mistake of your life. Enjoy!

Brilliant book
Much needed perspective in current times and a slam dunk on evolutionary materialism. I thoroughly enjoyed the order and logic of Meyer’s argument. This book can help the reader build a more conscious and purposeful relationship with God and the universe based on reason and rationality rather than faith alone.

A book that will stand the test of time.
While current scientific paradigms will pass away, this book will remain as the closest source to scientific truth in its most objective expression, ageless and profound.
Science points to a creator while most scientists do not.
Congratulations to Professor Meyer who is currently not widely recognised for his scientific contribution.
I hope another book is on the horizon.

Does it matter? A waste of time?
A desperate attempt to satisfy a narrative. Granted l am neither for or against.
it's beyond comical. If it's the subject of intelligent design, "it" does not need defending.
Why does it matter?
At any rate, both sides are a waste of breath. Reality does not care what you believe or think. So it's just as easy to calm down and enjoy the exploration.
I tried to bring myself to complete this book. but there was not enough of value to me personally. and that's the point here, it's personal. If this validation comforts you, then it's a 5/5, it will do so via high quality reference to evidence on hand and reasoning.
