Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book is about evolution. It aims to satisfy the curiosity of those who read it without involving them in matters too difficult to understand. Some think that Darwin, the discoverer of the phenomenon, published his theory and it has enjoyed total acceptance ever since. The truth is that science has unearthed in DNA a whole host of other factors that contribute to evolution, and often find Darwin's theory quite inadequate to explain the facts. Darwin was handicapped by not knowing about DNA, which wasn't understood until the 1950's. Since then DNA has become the center of a huge amount of research. One of the facts that some scientists have attributed to the powers of DNA is "Intelligence" in man. Whether this spiritualizing principle in humans can be explained by DNA is a question that has to be examined closely. This book tries hard to show that it is beyond the scope of DNA. The readers will finish the book, regarding themselves as wiser for having read it, and will continue to be interested in the efforts of science to use its knowledge more effectively to take advantage of DNA studies in modern Medicine. The book quotes a lot of articles from the internet and introduces three scholars: Ian Tattersall, Curator of the American Museum of Natural History. His book is titled "Becoming Human". Stephen Meyer. His book, "The Signature in the Cell" was Book of the Year in 2009 for Time Magazine. Francis C.Collins, is the man entrusted with the project of mapping the human genome. His book is titled "The Language of God". So the author of " Steps Towards the Summit" is not just giving his opinion. He finds backing for what he writes in the three men mentioned above. As sequel to this book, the writer has written another one titled "The Best of Life". It endeavors to show that the summit of evolution for intelligent man lies in his capacity to know God as God knows Himself. This is the summit. This item is printed on demand.
