The Face of Adam

Atypical approach to the quest for a sense of personal dignity and destiny. Michelangelo's quest is expressed through the monumental Sistine Ceiling; this book pursues the line of reasoning that the human body, mind and spirit, are rooted in a divine 'blueprint'--the ultimate icon. Biblical responses were never meant to be scientific; but biblical faith, springing from the heart of Abraham, finds fulfillment in the appearance of the Messiah.
