The Story of Four Books! Michael Denton and Michael Behe were both from religious families, but at the beginning of his university studies in medicine, Denton was a fundamentalist Christian and a believer in the moralism of young earth creation, but then he lost his faith in Christianity and was fully convinced of Darwinism, unlike Behe, who did not change anything in his religious convictions either before or after school (he was a Catholic Christian and still does), where he saw Darwinism as compatible with religion. After Denton completed his university studies in medicine, he continued to flounder between science and religion, then decided to resume his scientific studies, so he returned again to complete his doctorate in medicine at King's College, London, and there based his study on red blood cells in man, and it is known that those cells in man specifically do not contain the nucleus, Denton tried to link the time between his acceptance of the developmental Paradigm and what goes into his study, and asked himself how can the cell lose its nucleus? This shocking and disturbing question that no biologically interested person ever took up was found to be out in the open. No answers. Not even coherent ideas. Just bad attempts to obscure the question. Denton finished his PhD in 1974 fully convinced of the failure of the Darwinian paradem (or intellectual model), but this time in purely scientific terms, and by 1985 he had finished writing a book that would later become the cornerstone of the modern intelligent design movement; a book (Evolution: A Theory in Crisis). He began his journey with an attempt to reach a publisher. Where's the irony? The irony is that after the book was published and reached Michael Behe, and after reading it and feeling that he had been deceiving throughout his college years and in his Ph.D. and post-doctoral etc., Behe said almost the same thing: "Crazy crazy." In fact, it is very sad to spend so many years in a particular field of study, and then suddenly you feel that you have been the victim of systematic deception! “I went crazy, and I spent a lot of time in the subsequent months in the scientific library trying to find papers or books that explained in real detail how random mutations and natural selection could produce the super-complex systems that we normally study in biochemistry. I came back empty-handed, and I found nothing at all. Behe’s journey in search of real answers came to fruition with his groundbreaking book Darwin’s Black Box in 1996 and The Edge of Evolution in 2007, and Michael Denton returned in 2016 more than 20 years after his first book, to complete the journey and offer a more holistic view of the study of life in his book Evolution: Still a Theory in Crisis. The four books can be found in the booth of the Barahin Center (Hall 4 - B30) at the Cairo International Book Fair.
