Among the harmonizing tactics that have been deployed to keep alive the marriage of science and religion, is the preadamite theory -- the idea that human beings existed before the biblical Adam. This overview of the preadamite attempts to reveal how inter-penetrative scientific and religious discourses have been. Contents: (1) Preadamism (PA) and Pagan Chronology; and The Peyrerean Formula; (2) PA, Polygenism, and Race; Reconciling Ethnology and Theology; Alexander Winchell and Monogenetic PA; and PA, Fundamentalism, and Anti-Evolutionism; (3) Evolutionary PA and Conservative Theology: Evolutionary Anthropology and Evangelical Theology; and PA and Modern Catholic Theology. Illus. This is a print on demand publication.
