The Book explore the debate over the origin of humanity, particularly the idea of pre-Adamites – people who existed before Adam in the biblical narrative. The book examines how this concept was used to reconcile scientific discoveries about human prehistory with traditional religious beliefs, as well as how it was co-opted by racist ideologies to justify white supremacy and oppose racial mixing. The authors trace the evolution of pre-Adamite theory through centuries of scholarship, analyzing arguments from theology, science, and philosophy, and highlighting the impact of this theory on Western thought and social structures.
