CitizenLink: Friday Five: William A. Dembski: "Leading scientist and mathematician William A. Dembski has devoted years to researching intelligent design.
He is a research professor in philosophy at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and has been featured on the front page of The New York Times. He has appeared on numerous radio and television broadcasts, including Jon Stewart's The Daily Show and ABC's Nightline.
Dembski talked to CitizenLink about his latest book, The Design of Life — which he co-authored with Jonathan Wells.
