Question: Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, is a book, released in what year, arguing that the scientific theory of evolution by natural selection is a "theory in crisis", by Michael John Denton, a British-Australian author and biochemist?
Context: Patrick Matthew (20 October 1790 – 8 June 1874) was a Scottish grain merchant, fruit farmer, forester, and landowner, who contributed to the understanding of horticulture, silviculture, and agriculture in general, with a focus on maintaining the British navy and feeding new colonies.  He published the basic concept of natural selection as a mechanism in evolutionary adaptation and speciation (i.e. resulting from "positive" natural selection, in contrast to its already, widely known, "negative" rôle in removal of individuals in the Struggle for Survival), but failed to develop or publicise his ideas.  Consequently, when Charles Darwin published "On the Origin of Species", he and Alfred Russel Wallace were regarded by their scientific peers as having originated (independently of each other) the theory of evolution by natural selection; it has been suggested that Darwin and/or Wallace had encountered Matthew's earlier work, but there is no hard evidence of this.  After the publication of "On the Origin of Species", Matthew contacted Darwin, who in subsequent editions of the book acknowledged that the principle of natural selection had been anticipated by Matthew's brief statement, mostly contained in the appendices and "addendum" of his 1831 book, "On Naval Timber and Aboriculture". Phillip E. Johnson (born June 18, 1940) is a retired UC Berkeley law professor and author who is considered the father of the intelligent design movement.  He is a critic of Darwinism, which he has described as "fully naturalistic evolution, involving chance mechanisms and natural selection".  Johnson has said he believes "that a God exists who could create out of nothing if He wanted to do so, but who also might have chosen to work through a natural evolutionary process instead".  Johnson rejects that evolution is a fact and favors neo-creationary views known as intelligent design (ID).  He was a co-founder of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture (CSC) and is credited with establishing the wedge strategy, which aims to change public opinion and scientific consensus, and seeks to convince the scientific community to allow a role for theism, or causes beyond naturalistic explanation, in scientific discourse.  The consensus of the scientific community considers Johnson's opinions on evolution to be pseudoscience.  Johnson has argued that scientists accepted the theory of evolution "before it was rigorously tested, and thereafter used all their authority to convince the public that naturalistic processes are sufficient to produce a human from a bacterium, and a bacterium from a mix of chemicals." Michael John Denton (born 25 August 1943) is a British-Australian author and biochemist.  He is a Senior Fellow at the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture.  Denton’s most prominent book, "", inspired intelligent design proponents Phillip Johnson and Michael Behe. Darwinism is a theory of biological evolution developed by the English naturalist Charles Darwin (1809–1882) and others, stating that all species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce.  Also called Darwinian theory, it originally included the broad concepts of transmutation of species or of evolution which gained general scientific acceptance after Darwin published "On the Origin of Species" in 1859, including concepts which predated Darwin's theories.  It subsequently referred to the specific concepts of natural selection, the Weismann barrier, or the central dogma of molecular biology.  Though the term usually refers strictly to biological evolution, creationists have appropriated it to refer to the origin of life, and it has even been applied to concepts of cosmic evolution, both of which have no connection to Darwin's work.  It is therefore considered the belief and acceptance of Darwin's and of his predecessors' work—in place of other theories, including divine design and extraterrestrial origins. Evolution: A Theory in Crisis is a 1985 book by Michael Denton arguing that the scientific theory of evolution by natural selection is a "theory in crisis".  Reviews by scientists say that the book distorts and misrepresents evolutionary theory and contains numerous errors. The intelligent design movement is a neo-creationist religious campaign for broad social, academic and political change to promote and support the pseudoscientific idea of intelligent design (ID), which asserts that "certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection."  Its chief activities are a campaign to promote public awareness of this concept, the lobbying of policymakers to include its teaching in high school science classes, and legal action, either to defend such teaching or to remove barriers otherwise preventing it.  The movement arose out of the previous Christian fundamentalist and evangelistic creation science movement in the United States, and is driven by a small group of proponents.  The overall goal of the intelligent design movement is to overthrow materialism and atheism.  Its proponents believe that society has suffered "devastating" cultural consequences from adopting materialism and that science is the cause of the decay into materialism because it seeks only natural explanations, and is therefore atheistic.  They believe that the scientific theory of evolution implies that humans have no spiritual nature, no moral purpose, and no intrinsic meaning.  They seek to "reverse the stifling dominance of the materialist worldview" represented by the theory of evolution in favor of "a science consonant with Christian and theistic convictions." In the theory of evolution and natural selection, the Price equation (also known as Price's equation or Price's theorem) describes how a trait or gene changes in frequency over time.  The equation uses a covariance between a trait and fitness to give a mathematical description of evolution and natural selection.  It provides a way to understand the effects that gene transmission and natural selection have on the proportion of genes within each new generation of a population.  The Price equation was derived by George R. Price, working in London to re-derive W.D. Hamilton's work on kin selection.  The Price equation also has applications in economics.  Examples of the Price equation can be found here: Price equation examples. On the Origin of Species (or more completely, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life), published on 24 November 1859, is a work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin which is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology.  Darwin's book introduced the scientific theory that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection.  It presented a body of evidence that the diversity of life arose by common descent through a branching pattern of evolution.  Darwin included evidence that he had gathered on the "Beagle" expedition in the 1830s and his subsequent findings from research, correspondence, and experimentation. The Genetical Theory of Natural Selection is a book by Ronald Fisher which combines Mendelian genetics with Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection, with Fisher being the first to argue that "Mendelism therefore validates Darwinism" and stating with regard to mutations that "The vast majority of large mutations are deleterious; small mutations are both far more frequent and more likely to be useful", thus refuting orthogenesis.  First published in 1930 by The Clarendon Press, it is one of the most important books of the modern synthesis, and helped define population genetics.  It is commonly cited in biology books, outlining many concepts that are still considered important such as Fisherian runaway, Fisher's principle, reproductive value, Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection, Fisher's geometric model, the sexy son hypothesis, mimicry and the evolution of dominance.  It was dictated to his wife in the evenings as he worked at Rothamsted Research in the day. Darwinism: An Exposition of the Theory of Natural Selection with Some of Its Applications is an 1889 book on biological evolution by Alfred Russel Wallace, the co-discoverer of evolution by natural selection together with Charles Darwin.  This was a book Wallace wrote as a defensive response to the scientific critics of natural selection.  Of all Wallace's books, it is cited by scholarly publications the most.
