No. Is he a proponent of      intelligent design? No. Theres no reason, Gelernter wrote      in the Claremont Review of Books, to doubt that      Darwin successfully explained the small adjustments by which      an organism adapts to local circumstances: changes to fur      density or wing style or beak shape. Yet there are many      reasons to doubt whether he can answer the hard questions and      explain the big picture  not the fine-tuning of existing      species but the emergence of new ones. The origin of species      is exactly what Darwin cannot explain.    <\/p>\n<p>      Gelernter summarizes:   is one of the most      important books in a generation. Few open-minded people will      finish it with their faith in Darwin intact.    <\/p>\n<p>      That might sound like a scary thought. Some may not be      willing to read Meyers book and risk losing their faith in      the science weve been told is all settled. But dont you      wonder why a brilliant guy like Professor Gelernter would      give up Darwin?
