A personal note from Jesse and the graphic now included with the book (reprinted with permisson):
After considerable research I have finally obtained permission to use Figure 1, pg. 24, which depicts the South American butterfly, Morpho rhetenor, (“In the beginning was information” and Scientific American, Vol. 245, Nov. 1981). Sandra Crosnoe has suggested that I may be seeing the significance of this photo through engineer’s eyes, and I must confess there may be some truth in that observation. However, from the time I first saw this unbelievable microstructure I was struck by the fact that no objective observer should fail to recognize that someone beyond the realm of man and nature created this wonderful masterpiece. I hope readers of this writing will see what I saw.
