This book is a series of critical essays that first examines human creation from a biblical perspective (Celestial Fundamentals) and then an evolutionary perspective (The Ground Rules). After these essays, there's a short examination of how the brain works (The Thinker) and how humans perceive reality (Mind over Matter?). A scientific review of matter at the atomic level follows, including quantum mechanics (Don't Call Me Surely). The book then takes a rather satirical look at human behavior and today's society (Laws of Human Behavior, Warning Signs). At the book's conclusion (In the Beginning), there are literary essays from a cultural viewpoint covering the Iliad and the Odyssey, as well as Melville's Moby-Dick.
