The book discusses the controversial issue of whether animals are
designed according to the same rules that engineers use in building
machines, namely that materials and energy are used economically
while attempting to achieve a high level of performance. There is
considerable scientific controversy surrounding this question
because, although there is much evidence suggesting that animals
are indeed well designed, evolutionary biology tells us that
animals are not 'engineered' but result from evolution by natural
selection. This book collates this evidence which is discussed by a
group of eminent biologists from many different biological
disciplines."
