Signature of Controversyis a response to the 2009 bestsellerSignature in the Cellby Stephen C. Meyer,a book recognized as establishing one of the strongest pillars underlying the argument for intelligent design. To callSignature in the Cellimportant is an understatement. The critical response that followed the publication of Stephen Meyer’s book was fascinating, but the fact is that few—if any—of the critics really grappled with the crux of Meyer’s argument or with the substance of intelligent-design theory. This is remarkable and telling. InSignature of Controversy, defenders of intelligent design analyze the hostile response using the critics’ own writings.
