Darwin's Black Box
The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution
Book • 2006
In *Darwin's Black Box*, Michael J. Behe argues that certain biochemical systems exhibit 'irreducible complexity,' meaning they cannot function if any component is missing.
Using examples such as the mousetrap, cilia, blood clotting, and the immune system, Behe contends that these complex systems cannot be explained by Darwinian evolution and must be the result of intelligent design.
The book has been a key text in the intelligent design movement and has sparked significant debate on the adequacy of evolutionary theory to explain the complexity of life.
