"Karen Armstrong is a genius." -- A. N. Wilson

As the foundation stone of the Jewish and Christian scriptures, The Book of Genesis unfolds some of the most arresting stories of world literature -- the Creation; Adam and Eve; Cain and Abel; the sacrifice of Isaac. Yet the meaning of Genesis remains enigmatic. In this fascinating volume, Karen Armstrong, author of the highly acclaimed bestseller A History of God, brilliantly illuminates the mysteries and profundities of this mystifying work.

BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Karen Armstrong's Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life.

"A lyrical chronicle of one woman's wrestling with Genesis that can serve as a guide to others... As notable for its scholarship as it is for its honesty and vulnerability." -- Publishers Weekly

"Armstrong can simplify complex ideas, but she is never simplistic." -- The New York Times Book Review
