"The Genesis Flood" is a book published in 1961 by authors John C. Whitcomb and Henry M. Morris. It presents a literal interpretation of the Biblical account of the Great Flood described in the book of Genesis. The authors argue that the flood was a global event caused by divine intervention, which reshaped the earth's geology and environment. The book has been influential in the creationist movement, promoting the idea that scientific evidence supports a young earth and a worldwide flood. It challenges mainstream scientific views on geology and paleontology, asserting that many geological features can be explained by the flood rather than long-term processes.
