The Edge of Evolution: The Search for the Limits of Darwinism
Michael J. Behe
Free Press, 2007
Persuasive Evidence for Intelligent Design
+ Rescuing Science from Materialist Philosophy
+ Metaphorical Clarity

Michael J. Behe
Free Press, 1998
Darwin's fantasy.
+ Well written - read it for yourself
Excellent book. Not for the faint of heart and has some very technical reading. As I continue my research of creationism vs. evolution it's incredible how our schools continue to teach the wrong history with the mountains of obvious evidence against evolution and the non-existent evidence ...
