Now my understanding from the testimony from Dr. Padian on Friday, thats a fairly up and coming area in scientific research?
A. Yes, that’s right. It’s generated some excitement, uh-huh. And this is written by a man named Sean Carroll, who’s a professor of biology at the University of Wisconsin. And in this book, he gathers a lot of data and cites a lot of papers to argue the case that, in fact, much of evolution is not due to changes in protein structure as had once been thought, but perhaps is due to changes in regulatory regions that tell the cell how much of a particular protein to make. If we could go to the next slide then. Here are four more books of scientists making scientific arguments. The top two are by the same author. The first one might be difficult to read. It’s Richard Dawkins on the top left and the top right. His book here is entitled The Selfish Gene. And in this book, he argues that evolution is best understood not at the organismal level, but rather at the level of the gene, a fragment of DNA which can be replicated.
