One is naturally led to wonder how such a sophisticated system controlling embryological development could have arisen by virtue of a Darwinian step-wise process which, it must be borne in mind, traditionally involves changes to the DNA sequence.

Slowly and steadily science is digging in. Embryology is the key area to an attack on original Darwinism and its Neo form. The mechanisms to develop an advanced eukaryotic extremely complex embryo are of themselves an extreme complexity. There has to be an extraordinarily complex interactions, coordinated in time and space simultaneously. Here is another simplistic view, simplistic because so little is known:-http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-06-evolutions-waistline.html
