Publisher's summary

The Book of Genesis sets out the power of God, the creator, and in doing so opens to door on an endless controversy over its interpretation. Jane Williams' insightful ebook explores how Genesis still has much profound use behind the noise and why it remains one of the most powerful texts ever written. The How to Believe series of ebooks explores the teachings, philosophies and beliefs of major thinkers and religious texts. In a short, easy-to-access format, leading writers present new understandings of these perennially important ideas.

Follow the yellow brick road!

I started to follow it but the text took me in too many directions. This is not a book to fall asleep to.

Inaccurate in biblical reading

This seems to be directed towards making Genesis reflect modern evolution and conservation. Many errors of statements regarding what the scriptures state and interpretation skewed to belief versus what the scriptures actually state.
