The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, as described in Genesis, is examined under the spotlight of modern science against a cultural backdrop of history and archaeology. The strands of geography, geology, and engineering science, are drawn together to provide comprehensive treatment of all relevant scientific aspects pertinent to a rational understanding of the mechanics of the disaster. The detailed scientific argument follows a discussion of the Genesis account and considerations of Canaanite culture and commerce, with specific attention to the trade in bitumen.
