Rethinking humanity’s origins with science and scripture

Explore a provocative argument that Adam may not be the first man, and that race, creation, and history intertwine in surprising ways. This edition presents a thorough timeline, a bold challenge to traditional views, and a call to examine how science and faith can move forward together.

The book traces the order of creation, surveys the roots of different human groups, and examines how ideas about race, hybridity, and civilization have shaped religious and scientific thinking. It aims to align biblical insight with emerging scientific knowledge, while urging readers to weigh evidence with critical care.

A historical framework that links ancient civilizations, race theories, and religious interpretation
Discussion of hybrids, color, and selection in human groups
Analysis of how science and Revelation might harmonize in light of new discoveries

Ideal for readers interested in the intersection of theology, anthropology, and the history of ideas, who want to understand how 19th‑century debates about humanity’s beginnings were framed.
