4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Presentation. Oversimplification, March 16, 2001
This review is from: In the beginning (Paperback)
Asimov states well the historical probabilities of Genesis, but simplifies it beyond the area of possability.

The J and P documents are well stated there, but if that were the whole story between Genesis 1 and 2 creation stories, then why did one of the accounts become apocraphal (much like the Keys of Enoch.)?

Other than that, Asimov did a superb job in laying out Genesis as it was, a beautiful myth.
