David Berlinski (born 1942 in New York City) is an American educator and author of books on mathematics. He is a leading critic of evolution within the intelligent design movement and author of numerous articles on the topic. Berlinski is a secular Jew and agnostic, and according to a 2008 Slate magazine profile "a critic, a contrarian, and — by his own admission — a crank [... and] zealous skeptic, more concerned with false gods than real ones."

  • David Berlinski ist ein US-amerikanischer Mathematiker. David Berlinski promovierte in Philosophie an der Princeton University und arbeitete als postdoctoral fellow in Mathematik und Molekularbiologie an der Columbia University. Er lehrte Philosophie, Mathematik und Englisch u. a. an der Stanford University, der Rutgers University, der City University of New York und der Sorbonne und hatte Forschungsaufenthalte am IIASA in Laxenburg und am IHES bei Paris. Berlinski hat Werke über Systemanalyse, Differentialtopologie, Theoretische Biologie, analytische Philosophie und Philosophie der Mathematik, sowie drei Romane veröffentlicht, außerdem allgemeinverständliche Bücher über mathematische und wissenschaftshistorische Themen. Aufsätze von ihm erschienen im Commentary Magazine, Forbes ASAP, in der Boston Review und am Discovery Institute. Berlinski war mit Marcel Schützenberger befreundet und arbeitete gemeinsam mit ihm an einer mathematischen Kritik des Darwinismus. Als entschiedener Kritiker der Evolutionstheorie ist er Fellow des evolutionskritischen Center for Science and Culture am Discovery Institute in Seattle.
  • È stato ricercatore presso l' International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Austria e l' Institute des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques (IHES) in France. Attualmente è residente a Parigi. Berlinski ha svolto lavori nei campi dell' analisi dei sistemi, topologia differenziale, biologia teorica theoretical biology, filosofia analitica, e filosofia della matematica. Negli ultimi anni è diventato noto per le sue posizioni apertamente critiche nei confronti della validità scientifica dell'evoluzione; Berlinski ha sempre mantenuto metafisicamente un atteggiamento di agnosticismo ed è membro del Center for Science and Culture del Discovery Institute di Seattle, che è uno dei punto di riferimento per il movimento creazionista del disegno intelligente. Ha scritto opere su argomenti disparati quali analisi dei sistemi, topologia differenziale, biologia teorica, filosofia e filosofia della matematica. In italiano è stato pubblicato A Tour of Calculus. Alcuni dei suoi libri sono stati tradotti in più di dieci lingue.
