In Zombie Science, Jonathan Wells gives both a very informative and entertaining account of the problems surrounding Darwinian evolution.

He makes a compelling argument that the case in favor of evolution is being driven by a commitment to materialistic philosophy and not by scientific evidence.

In fact, Wells convincingly shows that the icons used to support evolution continue to be taught in spite of the increasing evidence against them.

Whether a person is convinced of the truth of evolutionary theory, a skeptic, or convinced of the design argument, a clearer and greater understanding of the evolution/design debate will be gained by reading this book.

(Russell W.

Carlson, Ph.

, Professor Emeritus, Dept.

of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology and the Complex Carbohydrate Research Center, University of Georgia)On TV and at the movies, zombies are simultaneously scary and comedic.

Zombie Science is even more frightening and, at times, even more laughable--and worthy of the exposure and ridicule Dr.

Jonathan Wells delivers here with his customary gusto and clarity.

This important new book makes a persuasive case that the most radical, least rational and tolerant of all contemporary religious faiths is the fundamentalist belief in materialism.

(Michael Medved, nationally syndicated talk radio host and author of The American Miracle)Zombie Science poses a crucial question: If its true that Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution, as Darwinists often claim, why do textbooks continue to tout trivial, misleading, or downright fake illustrations fifteen years after Jonathan Wells first exposed many of them? If these are the best examples, the theory itself is extinct.

(Michael Behe, Ph.

, Professor of Biological Sciences, Lehigh University, and author of Darwins Black Box and The Edge of Evolution)Evolutionary biologists provide contradictory hypotheses of the tree of life and mistaken answers on walking whales, junk DNA, the human eye, the origin of life, and many other captivating topics.

To be up to date and informed on the many falsehoods dominating contemporary science and biology textbooks, I strongly recommend Zombie Science, the latest politically incorrect book by Jonathan Wells.

(Wolf-Ekkehard Lnnig, Ph.

, Senior Scientist, Dept.

of Molecular Genetics, Max Planck Institute of Plant Breeding Research, Cologne - retired)When I read Zombie Science, the old phrase My mind is made up, dont confuse me with the facts kept coming to mind.

Against the facts, Establishment Science continues to push a materialist narrative with religious zeal.

Wells provides a very readable account of Establishment Sciences efforts to shore up a failed theory.

Like zombies, neo-Darwinism just refuses to die.

But readers will come away with good protection from the zombie arguments that keep appearing.

(Ralph Seelke, Ph.

, Professor Emeritus, Dept.

of Natural Sciences - Microbiology, Cell Biology, Genetics, University of Wisconsin-Superior)In this sequel to his seminal book Icons of Evolution, molecular biologist Jonathan Wells not only responds to his critics, but reveals even more examples of dubious and overrated scientific evidence for evolution.

He shows that the theory of macroevolution still lacks empirical support, and that the materialist dogma has corrupted modern science, which desperately tries to close the door for any alternative explanations like Intelligent Design.

Wells book represents an important contribution for a paradigm change that is long overdue.

It is easy to understand even for laymen, and an enjoyable read as well.

(Gunter Bechly, Ph.

, Paleontologist and Former Curator for Amber and Fossil Insects, Dept.

of Paleontology, State Museum of Natural History, Stuttgart, Germany)Icons of Evolution proved the emperor has no clothes.

Now Zombie Science shows that it doesnt even have a pulse.

In this lucid and highly readable sequel, Jonathan Wells again turns the tables on the Darwinists, documenting how their supposedly overwhelming evidence for unguided evolution is one long bluff.

(Tom Bethell, author of Darwins House of Cards and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science)Seventeen years ago Jonathan Wells exposed ten icons of evolution that had wide acceptance but that didnt fit the evidence.

Now he demonstrates that these icons not only continue to haunt the popular media and remain in commonly distributed textbooks, but that at least six more can be added to the list.

Their persistence and proliferation suggest that these icons are now the substance of what he calls zombie science, the promotion of dead ideas as if they were living facts.

Wells strategy is to treat these dead icons like you would all zombies that prefer the cover of darkness: He removes the darkness, shedding revealing light on the central dogma that DNA = RNA = Us, the myth of walking whales, the notion of vestigial organs and other evolutionary junk, the eye as an evolutionary icon, and the boasts of Darwinian medicine in explaining antibiotic resistance and cancer.

Told with a scathing wit that would have made Thomas Henry Huxley envious, Zombie Science is bound to be next on every Darwinians growing Index Librorum Prohibitorum.

To conceal this contraband, Wells even includes instructions for making a plain brown cover for the book.

Im marking mine Pride and Prejudice, which may best describe the sources of this zombie phenomenon.

A fascinating, lively book that should be on everyones reading list.

(Michael A.

Flannery Professor Emeritus, University of Alabama at Birmingham, and author of Alfred Russel Wallace: A Rediscovered Life)I could not put this book down; every page has mind-opening information that exposes errors, misinterpretations and even fraud from the hardline Darwinian evolution proponents.

Jonathan Wells has married his sharp wit and extensive research to deliver an exciting look at the flaws of Darwinian evolution that just keep popping up.

If science educators were confident that the current teaching of Darwinian evolution could stand up to scientific criticism, then Dr.

Wells work would be included in school and university syllabi; thus I dont expect to see it in any biology textbook soon.

There is a battle for the minds and culture of our future generations, but Dr.

Wells shows good reason for optimism as more recent advances in biology come to light and an increasing body of the scientific community are realizing that the current teaching of evolution cannot stand up to recent discoveries.

Philip Anderson, M.

(South Africa) FRCA)Dr.

Wells once again demonstrates his unique ability to bring clarity to the many misrepresentations of the evidence for Darwinian evolution that clutter biology textbooks today.

This is the most comprehensive critique I have seen.

It is a must read for truth-seeking biology students and their parents.

(Roger DeHart, M.

, high school biology teacher for forty years).
