Alfred Russel Wallace was the co-discoverer of evolution by natural selection together with Charles Darwin. Wallace wrote Darwinsim as a defensive response to the scientific critics of natural selection. Of all Wallace's books, "it is cited by scholarly publications the most" (Shermer, Life and Science of Alfred Russel Wallace).
