I always like a book that wakes me up, makes my brain move in new
directions, and offers new paradigms for thinking theologically.
This book, while incredibly dense and filled to its electronic
gills with footnotes, does this.
*Dolores L. Christie, Catholic Books Review*
In the book the author uses selected advances in the natural and
social sciences for "rethinking" [indistinguishable from
reinterpreting] the Adam and Eve story in Genesis as it applies to
Original Sin and sexual difference...There are different
constraints put on interpretations in theology and the hard
sciences. Understanding the differences, which will follow, helps
to place the author's contemporary interpretations of the Adam and
Eve story into a broader epistemic context.

This monograph is an excellent start.
