What type of group does The Design Revolution and William A. Dembski have in common?
community
William A. Dembski
William Albert "Bill" Dembski (born July 18, 1960) is an American mathematician, philosopher and theologian.
 A proponent of intelligent design (ID), specifically the concept of specified complexity, he was previously a senior fellow of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture (CSC).
 On September 23, 2016 he announced his official retirement from intelligent design, resigning all his "formal associations with the ID community, including [his] Discovery Institute fellowship of 20 years."
The Design Revolution
The Design Revolution: Answering the Toughest Questions about Intelligent Design is a 2004 book by William A. Dembski, who supports intelligent design, and the idea that certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not a naturalistic process such as natural selection.
 The book is written in question/answer format from Dembski's point of view as one of the conceptual leaders in the movement.
 Each chapter is about 4 pages long and addresses one specific question.
 Dembski describes these questions as from his prior ten years experience in lectures, media interviews, and published criticism by the scientific community opposed to intelligent design, who constitute the majority of the scientific community and science education organizations.
 The foreword was written by Charles W. Colson.
Specified complexity
Specified complexity is a concept proposed by William Dembski and used by him and others to promote the pseudoscientific arguments of intelligent design.
 According to Dembski, the concept can formalize a property that singles out patterns that are both "specified" and "complex", in specific senses defined by Dembski.
 Dembski states that specified complexity is a reliable marker of design by an intelligent agent—a central tenet to intelligent design, which Dembski argues for in opposition to modern evolutionary theory.
 The concept of specified complexity is widely regarded as mathematically unsound and has not been the basis for further independent work in information theory, in the theory of complex systems, or in biology.
 Proponents of intelligent design use specified complexity as one of their two main arguments, alongside irreducible complexity. Mead &amp; Conway revolution
The Mead & Conway revolution was a very-large-scale integration (VLSI) design revolution which resulted in a worldwide restructuring of academic education, and was paramount for the development of industries based on the application of microelectronics. Curwen Press
The Curwen Press was founded by the Reverend John Curwen in 1863 to publish sheet music for the "tonic sol-fa" system.
 The Press was based in Plaistow, Newham, east London, England, where Curwen was a pastor from 1844.
 The Curwen Press, under the management of Harold Curwen, John's grandson, was at the vanguard of the design revolution that saw expression in British printing in the early 20th century.
 Many well-known graphic artists, including Eric Ravilious, Edward Bawden, Claud Lovat Fraser, Paul Nash and Barnett Freedman worked with Curwen.
 The Press's output included books, posters and published ephemera. The Design Inference
The Design Inference: Eliminating Chance through Small Probabilities is a 1998 book by American philosopher and mathematician William A. Dembski, a proponent of intelligent design, which sets out to establish approaches by which evidence of intelligent agency could be inferred in natural and social situations.
 In the book he distinguishes between 3 general modes of competing explanations in order of priority: regularity, chance, and design.
 The processes in which regularity, chance, and design are ruled out one by one until one remains as a reasonable and sufficient explanation for an event, are what he calls an "explanatory filter".
 It is a method that tries to eliminate competing explanations in a systematic fashion including when a highly improbable event conforms to a discernible pattern that is given independently of the event itself.
 This pattern is Dembski's concept of specified complexity.
 Throughout the book he uses diverse examples such as detectability of spontaneous generation and occurrence of natural phenomena and cases of deceit like ballot rigging, plagiarism, falsification of data, etc. Intelligent Design (book)
Intelligent Design: The Bridge Between Science and Theology is a 1999 book by William A. Dembski which presents an argument in support of intelligent design.
 Dembski defines the term "specified complexity", and argues that instances of it in nature cannot be explained by Darwinian evolution, but instead are consistent with the intelligent design.
 He also derives an instance of his self-declared law of conservation of information and uses it to argue against Darwinian evolution.
 The book is a summary treatment of the mathematical theory he presents in "The Design Inference" (1998), and is intended to be largely understandable by a nontechnical audience.
 Dembski also provides a Christian theological commentary, and analysis of, what he perceives to be the historical and cultural significance of the ideas. Wankel engine
The Wankel engine is a type of internal combustion engine using an eccentric rotary design to convert pressure into rotating motion.
 In contrast to the more common reciprocating piston designs, the Wankel engine delivers advantages of simplicity, smoothness, compactness, high revolutions per minute, and a high power-to-weight ratio primarily due to the fact that it produces three power pulses per rotor revolution compared to one per revolution in a two-stroke piston engine and one per two revolutions in a four-stroke piston engine (although at the actual output shaft, there is only one power pulse per revolution, since the output shaft spins three times as fast as the actual rotor does, as can be seen in the animation below, making it roughly equivalent to a 2-stroke engine of the same displacement; this is also why the displacement only measures one face of the rotor, since only one face is working for each output shaft revolution).
 The engine is commonly referred to as a rotary engine, although this name also applies to other completely different designs, primarily aircraft engines with their cylinders arranged in a circular fashion around the crankshaft.
 All parts rotate consistently in one direction, as opposed to the common reciprocating piston engine, which has pistons violently changing direction.
 The four-stage cycle of intake, compression, ignition, and exhaust occur each revolution at each of the three rotor tips moving inside the oval-like epitrochoid-shaped housing, enabling the three power pulses per rotor revolution.
 The rotor is similar in shape to a Reuleaux triangle with sides that are somewhat flatter. Uncommon Dissent
Uncommon Dissent: Intellectuals Who Find Darwinism Unconvincing is a 2004 anthology edited by William A. Dembski in which fifteen intellectuals, eight of whom are leading intelligent design proponents associated with the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture (CSC) and the International Society for Complexity, Information and Design (ISCID), criticise "Darwinism" and make a case for intelligent design.
 It is published by the publishing wing of the paleoconservative Intercollegiate Studies Institute.
 The foreword is by John Wilson, editor of the evangelical Christian magazine "Christianity Today".
 The title is a pun on the principle of biology known as common descent.
 The Discovery Institute is the engine behind the intelligent design movement. Lesley Jackson
Lesley Jackson is a London-based design curator, historian and author specialising in twentieth century design.
 She has published at least eleven books to date, include Twentieth Century Pattern Design from Princeton Architectural Press , The Sixties: Decade of Design Revolution from Phaidon, The New Look: Design in the Fifties , and Robin and Lucienne Day: Pioneers of Contemporary Design from Mitchell Beazley.
