Publisher's Synopsis
Adam and the Adamite: Or The Harmony of Scripture and Ethnology is a book written by Dominick McCausland and published in 1872. The book explores the relationship between the biblical account of Adam and the scientific study of ethnology. McCausland argues that the biblical story of Adam is consistent with scientific evidence about the origins of human civilization. He examines the various theories of human origins that were prevalent in the mid-19th century and argues that the biblical account is the most accurate. McCausland also explores the relationship between Adam and other figures from the Bible, such as Noah and Abraham, and how their stories relate to the history of human civilization. The book is written in a scholarly style and is intended for readers with an interest in both biblical studies and anthropology. Overall, Adam and the Adamite is a fascinating exploration of the intersection between religion and science in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
