The Adam-God Revelation is the first of  two volumes in a set called the Journal of References (the second volume is titled "Composition, Decomposition and Eternity").

The Adam-God doctrine, first clearly declared by Brigham Young, met with stiff opposition by both Saint and sinner. Eventually, he significantly retreated from his profounder teachings, returning to a basic understandings of the Gospel. But then in the 1870s President Young again publicly revived the higher concepts of his revelation, as he declared it was.

This book has 508 pages, with 182 chapters, each chapter is a reference from a source of reliable texts. Each chapter has been further divided into verses, patterned after the Scriptures, in order that the student or reader may cross reference his studies. The latter part of the book is divided into three approaches or theories that are supported today, for consideration. Also included in the book:  a map of the universe gleaned from the Book of Abraham.
 This book is not anti-LDS but strives to be objective. The Adam-God doctrine is not simply cited here alone, but it is seated in with other related teachings of the day: decomposition, polygamy, plurality of gods, and so on. In this manner, it is hoped that the reader will appreciate the Adam-God teachings as part of a greater whole by a visionary man of God, and not as an aberrant misgiving of a prophet gone awry.
