Genesis: an authorship study in computer-assisted statistical linguistics

The authors of this volume have produced a formidable work in the area of computer studies and the Bible. In this impressive volume especially Radday and Shore have mounted a major research project, an investigation into the so-called literary sources of the Pentateuch insofar as these are found in the Book of Genesis. While one may wish to quibble with the choices and decisions made as to specific assignment of passages and authorities used and cites, no one can doubt that this work makes an important contribution to the elucidation of this central issue in biblical studies.
