In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, scientists reconstructed the immensely long history of the earth—and the relatively recent arrival of human life. The geologists of the period, many of whom were devout believers, agreed about this vast timescale. But despite this apparent harmony between geology and Genesis, these scientists still debated a great many questions: Had the earth cooled from its origin as a fiery ball in space, or had it always been the same kind of place as it is now? Was prehuman life marked by mass extinctions, or had fauna and flora changed slowly over time? The first detailed account of the reconstruction of prehuman geohistory, Martin J. S. Rudwick’s Worlds Before Adam picks up where his celebrated Bursting the Limits of Time leaves off. Here, Rudwick takes readers from the post-Napoleonic Restoration in Europe to the early years of Britain’s Victorian age, chronicling the staggering discoveries geologists made during the period: the unearthing of the first dinosaur fossils, the glacial theory of the last ice age, and the meaning of igneous rocks, among others. Ultimately, Rudwick reveals geology to be the first of the sciences to investigate the historical dimension of nature, a model that Charles Darwin used in developing his evolutionary theory. Featuring an international cast of colorful characters, with Georges Cuvier and Charles Lyell playing major roles and Darwin appearing as a young geologist, Worlds Before Adam is a worthy successor to Rudwick’s magisterial first volume. Completing the highly readable narrative of one of the most momentous changes in human understanding of our place in the natural world, Worlds Before Adam is a capstone to the career of one of the world’s leading historians of science.

THE PLANET EARTH BEFORE ADAM is a book born out of my childhood curiosity to find out the origin of sin and other forms of evil. Reading through the pages of my Bible from Genesis only to see the Devil entered the garden to deceive man. Where did he come from? Did God created him like that? If God knew that man would fall, why did He made him in the first place? These and many more are questions that I couldn't get answers to in the early part of Genesis. I later discovered the following: that there was actually a Bible proven Earth before Adam, that Lucifer was not the archangel in charge of music as we have been made to believed, that he was the king and priest over the planet Earth, that this is why Adam was also a king and priest, Melchizedek, the Theophany that appeared to Abraham was called the king and priest after who Jesus Christ, the mediator of the New Testament was made the King and Priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. This is the reason the new creature in Christ Jesus is made a king priest because it takes these two offices and anointings to bring this planet under the governing influence of God just as He intended from the beginning. This book will definitely give your christian life a serious push.

BEFORE THE BEGINNING This fascinating book takes a trip back to eternity past, showing the Godhead (Father, Son & Holy Spirit) in conference, discussing their future plan to create a brand new creature, called man. It then focuses in on a once high-ranking angel named Lucifer, at the very point when he decides to overthrow Almighty God, and how later, his destiny and mankind's became intertwined. WHAT REALLY HAPPENED, IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN? Next, is on to the world-famous Garden of Eden, earth's very real, original paradise setting. The Lord (Jesus) personally forms the first man Adam, and some while later creates a woman (Eve), and they become man and wife. Their story is the heart of the book, with a verse-by-verse, in-depth examination, of what really went on in the garden, that's still impacting every single human being and living creature on planet earth, to this day. JESUS CAME TO EARTH, TO RESTORE WHAT ADAM LOST It's interesting to hear people's opinions on why they think Jesus came to earth. Many think He was one of a long-line of enlightened spiritual leaders, sent to show us how to live on a higher dimension or spiritual plane, of existence. Others think He was a very good man, who had wisdom to share with us, and a system of religious teachings from which the Christian religion came about. Then there are a large number of people who believe He was the Son of God, but they're not real sure what all was involved with His being here, especially the part about Him being killed. Jesus became a man to reverse Adam's curse, and to make it possible for everything to be restored, as it was in the beginning, so that mankind can rule and reign with Him, throughout eternity.

In Before Adam, an unnamed narrator describes the life of one of his ancestors, who lived during the transition from ape to human being. Written and published in the early 20th Century, the novel presents ideas that were common for the period, like scientific racism and racial memory, and has elements of eugenic thought. This makes the work outdated both scientifically and socially. Today, the novel is obscured by Jack London’s more successful works, like Call of the Wild and Martin Eden. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
