These are the Portable Document Format (PDF) files for "The Book of
GENESIS". If your browser has a helper or plugin for viewing PDF files,
you may read these chapters from these links. Otherwise, change into the BoG
directory and use the Acrobat Reader (acroread) or xpdf to view the files.
Acrobat Reader seems to do a better job of rendering the
equations. If one of the equations doesn't look right, try zooming in on
it.
