In Signature in the Cell, Dr. Stephen Meyer examines how the digital code embedded in DNA points powerfully to a designing intelligence and helps unravel a mystery that Darwin did not address: how did the very first life begin?  Join us as Dr. Meyer investigates how new scientific discoveries are pointing to intelligent design as the best explanation for the complexity of life and the universe.

    How does an intelligent person become a proponent of Intelligent Design?  Anyone who stereotypes IDers as anti-scientific ideologues or fundamentalists should read Dr. Stephen Meyer’s compelling intellectual memoir.  Meyer as a student became fascinated with the “DNA Enigma” – how the information to produce life originated – and at considerable risk to his career hasn’t given up trying to solve the mystery.  Meyer shows how step by step he concluded that Intelligent Design is the most likely explanation of how the DNA code came to be.
