Summary

Dr. Kaspar Appenzeller compares the biblical story of creation to human embryonic development. He leads us through his years of research into the grand imagery in the book of Genesis, relating it to what today’s science has to say about the origin of the human body.

About The Author

Kaspar Appenzeller

Dr. Kaspar Appenzeller (1927-1999) was a Swiss doctor whose medical career spanned 1956 to 1998. He studied medicine in Zurich, had a private practice, and worked as a school doctor. Dr. Appenzeller was committed to anthroposophic medicine, and later in life devoted his time to the Rudolf Steiner estate. As a researcher, he was especially interested in embryology (as microcosmic genesis), anatomy, and the human heart, whose rhythmic activity he believed was far more than a mere mechanism for circulating blood. He was the author of several books. He also made a film in 1961, The Problem of Blood Movement Demonstrated on Chicken Embryos (in Dutch).
