Brain Neurons Are “Comparable to a Library”
It’s one of those occasions in biology (not rare) when the term “intelligent design,” despite other merits, falls flat as a description.
A Crucial Design Difference in Vertebrate Nerves
Consideration of the basic characteristics of nerve impulse propagation suggests that the speed of conduction in mammals is close to the maximum possible.
In Defiance of Evolution, Hierarchical Design Is Ubiquitous in Biology
Design with interdependent layers presents a challenge to neo-Darwinism. Natural selection is oblivious to anything but an immediate beneficial variation.
Darwin Double-Crossed: The Design of the Human Nervous System
Our skin and our insides are laced with an invisible, highly sophisticated, selective, neurological netting.
