The Garden Of Eden & The Struggle To Be Human

Philosophy & Religion Spirituality & New Age

Wilfred Shuchat’s 2006 first-edition hardcover, The Garden Of Eden & The Struggle To Be Human, invites serious readers of religious spirituality to re-examine the Genesis narrative as a mirror of modern inner conflict. This 584-page Devora volume, printed in Israel, blends Biblical scholarship with personal reflection, making it a go-to text for adult study groups and seminary shelves alike.

The copy is personally inscribed—an appealing touch for collectors of contemporary Judaica—yet remains priced for readers, not just display. A crisp dust jacket still guards the navy boards, and the sewn binding opens smoothly without cracked hinges, so the book feels sturdy in hand.

Expect about thirty lightly annotated pages; underlining is done in pen and stays clear of the margins, letting the main text stay legible for class or sermon prep. Front and rear endpapers show a few stray marks, but the bulk of the pages are bright, un-dog-eared, and free of tears or creases.

Ideal for anyone building a library of first-edition spirituality titles, this copy offers both intellectual substance and a personal connection through the author’s hand-written note. Secure it now to explore Shuchat’s fresh take on Eden without waiting for a reprint.
