NEARLY 150 years after they were first published, Darwin鈥檚 theories are still under attack, this time from supporters of 鈥渋ntelligent design鈥 (ID). Intelligent Thought is the counter-attack. John Brockman, the publisher and literary agent, has lined up 16 thinkers, including Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Steven Pinker, to punch holes in the concept of ID. They affirm the power of evolutionary theory and describe how the 鈥渉oax鈥 of ID was perpetrated. The book is also a handy digest of current thinking on matters such as consciousness and the nature of science.
