About

Scientists often challenge conventional wisdom and spark debates that last for generations. But no scientist has fuelled more debate than Charles Darwin. To some he is the revolutionary 'father' of evolution. To others he is the perverse 'originator' of modern eugenics. In The Darwin Myth: The Life and Lies of Charles Darwin, author Benjamin Wiker brings these conflicting identities to light. Laying out the evidence and sound scientific arguments, Wiker offers a critical analysis of Darwin's theories as well as the social, scientific, and religious implications of his work, illuminating the inevitable truth about his powerful, yet ultimately poisonous, legacy.

Reviews

"Ben Wiker's brilliant biography of Charles Darwin sheds more light on the contrast between Darwin the kindly man and the chilling logic of his theory than anything I have read. I highly recommend it."
Phillip E. Johnson, Professor of law emeritus Universityof California, Berkeleyand author
"Benjamin Wiker's compelling account of the life of Darwin treats its subject as too few biographers do-not as an icon, not as a devil, but as a man. Very highly recommended."
Michael Behe, Ph.D. author of Darwins Black Box
"Ben Wiker brilliantly demonstrates that Darwinism (which is not the same as evolution) is atheism masquerading as science. And like its intellectual cousin, Marxism, Darwinism has deeply corrupted our civilization."
Jonathan Wells, Ph.D., author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intellig
