How the Founders of Modern Science Used the Book Metaphor in Their Scientific Inquiry
View at YouTubeThese days, we’re told that science and God are at odds and that we should reject theistic belief in order to do good science. But is that true? Philosopher of science and best-selling author Stephen C. Meyer explains the first of three metaphors used by the founders of modern science to describe the design and regularity of nature.

Praise for Return of the God Hypothesis:
“This book makes it clear that far from being an unscientific claim, intelligent design is valid science.”

Meyer is also the author of The New York Times best selling book Darwin’s Doubt: The Explosive Origin of Animal Life and the case for Intelligent Design (HarperOne, 2013), and Signature In The Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design (2009).

“No one else in my experience can explicate such complex material with the grace and clarity that seem so effortless to Stephen Meyer. With cold logic and meticulous rational analysis of the latest discoveries in cosmology, physics, and biology, Meyer confirms a truth that the ideologues find too frightening even to consider. By the ad hominem nature of their attacks on his brilliant work, they confirm its importance and suggest an eventual end to the scientism that warps our culture.”
