'According to the Book of Genesis, God first created man. Woman was not only an afterthought, but an amenity. For close to 2000 years this holy scripture was believed to justify her subordination and explain her inferiority; for even as a copy she was not a very good copy. There were differences. She was not one of His best efforts.' This book argues for the equal role of women in human evolution. Starting with her demolition of the biblical myth that woman was an afterthought to the creation of man, Elaine Morgan rewrites human history and evolution.
