COVER: The cover Illustration of the Tower of Babel is a rendenng from a 19th century engraving belonging to the Granger Collection, New York. The Tower of Babel is said to have been built in the land of Shinar (Babylonia) some time after the Deluge. According to the story in Genesis 11:1-9. the Babylonians wanted to build a city and a tower whose top would reach to heaven. Their project angered Jehovah and as a punishment for their presumption he confused their language so that they no longer understood one another and scattered them over the face of the earth. The story appears to be an attempt to explain the existence of diverse human languages and races. Design by Socrates Paschalidis, GRAFI& Canberra. ACT. Typesetting by CPP Communications.
