5.0 out of 5 stars Great book. It should be added to all schools' curricullums, October 1, 1998
By A Customer
This book provided me with a sense of my heritage that I probably would not have been able to find eslewhere. The author is very knowledgeable about the subject and clearer lays it out for all to see. I really recommend this book for all cultures and races to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, lucid and eye-opening, May 8, 2004
Dr. Finch is a scholar whose work is well research and wonderfully written. I first ran across this book about five years ago and this seminal work has impacted my life every since. The author discusses the humankind's earliest cultures and the roots of Christianity. The great thing in this book is that the collection of essays gives the reader a broad overview of the history of humankind by looking at our myths, cosmologies, and stories about the universe.

Delving into the human psyche while also meshing solid scientific facts and findings is one thing. But writing in a clear fashion that encompasses the technical aspect of the work is another thing. Dr. Finch has a gift for sliding humor and humanity into a subject some may deem as dry. An underrated, underappreciated work from one of my favorite scholars--I recommend this book with the highest regard.
