Title: Excellent! Behe's masterpiece that has launched him to fame!
Product review: Behe's main point is that "irreducibly complex" systems could not have been produced by the minute incremental steps that Darwinian evolution requires. Some examples he gives are the human immune system (my favorite chapter), the blot-clotting system, flagella, systems that package and transfer cellular products, as well as others. He goes on to demonstrate that details on how these systems could have evolved are missing from biological journals even though evolution is supposedly a cornerstone of modern biology. His analogies are easy to understand, yet he still packs the book with plenty of biochemical details. This work has been criticized by an evolutionist on the WEB (try searching on ANTIEVOLUTION), but Behe has easily refuted the claims (oddly enough, his detractor seemed to be in awe of Behe's credentials). After reading this book, I agree with Behe that the first cell could have only been created through Intelligent Design.
