Abstract:

Staunch Darwinists attribute all the complexity of living things to an algorithms of mutation and natural selection. The exquisite products of this evolution algorithms are apparent at all levels, from the amazing diversity of life all this way down to individual protein molecules. Scientists and engineers who wish to redesign these same molecules are now implementing their own versions of the algorithm.
