Este libro sugiere que:
1) en el mito hebreo, Adán y Eva eran una pareja de homíninos, como cualquiera de los antepasados humanos que hemos descubierto últimamente;
2) los hebreos tenían una idea mucho más sofisticada y realista de la evolución de lo que se cree en la actualidad y ello explica muchos puntos de la Biblia que parecían inexplicables hasta ahora;
