Behe inferred, based upon the great rarity of a CCC evolving, that it was a trait that probably required multiple mutations. Dr. Michael J. Behe is a Professor of Biological Sciences at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania.He is a prominent advocate of the pseudoscience Intelligent Design, having coined the term irreducible complexity and testified as an expert witness and co-author of the intelligent design textbook that was the subject of the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District litigation. Behe's Empty Box This web page contains many links to web pages supporting or criticizing Behe's work. “A Response to My Lehigh Colleagues, Part 1” by Michael Behe at Evolution News (March 22, 2019). Michael Behe presents a briefer version of the argument from design that appears in his book. Michael J. Behe is Professor of Biological Sciences at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania and a Senior Fellow at Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture. Michael Behe is a biochemist, an intelligent design advocate, and the author of Darwin’s Black Box and The Edge of Evolution. (Michael Behe, The Edge of Evolution: The Search for the Limits of Darwinism, p. 135 (Free Press, 2007).) Behe’s current research involves delineation of design and natural selection in protein structures.
Behe’s argument didn’t turn on that inference, but it was a reasonable one.
Today, a growing number of scientists embrace some or all of intelligent design theory, while many of the rest feel the sting of Behe’s challenge and wish they could answer him.

Lang and Amber M. Rice (March 13, 2019) at Evolution. American Scientist Review of Black Box In this American Scientist magazine book review, Yale biologist Robert Dorit identifies six fallacies that plague Behe's book. About the Author. Re: Lang and Rice at Evolution. He received his Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the University of Pennsylvania in 1978. Twenty years ago, biochemist Michael Behe sparked a revolution with his book, Darwin’s Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution, which went on to sell 300,000 copies.
