Undeniable: How Biology Confirms Our Intuition That Life Is Designed

Douglas Axe, an engineer-turned-molecular-biologist, examines humanity's origins through what he calls the "design intuition"—the innate human belief that complex tasks requiring knowledge can only be accomplished by someone possessing that knowledge. He argues this intuition, when applied to the creation of life, points to God as the designer. Axe challenges the scientific consensus on Darwin's theory of evolution, contending that a fundamental gap has existed at its center since inception. He presents scientific explanations in accessible language to support the validity of design intuition, then uses everyday examples to help readers understand and articulate why this intuition must be true. The book argues that living creatures—from single-celled cyanobacteria to orca whales and humans—are the product of deliberate design rather than accident. Axe contends that when people acknowledge this truth, biology itself will be transformed. A World Magazine Best Book of the Year.
