[Douglas] Adams was born in Cambridge, England, on 11 March 1952 to Christopher Douglas Adams (1927–1985), a management consultant and computer salesman, former probation officer and lecturer on probationary group therapy techniques, and nurse Janet (1927–2016), née Donovan.
The idea of an “eye for an eye” as fair punishment is part of the Bible’s Old Testament. In the New Testament, Jesus Christ instructs his followers to reject that teaching and instead turn the other cheek.
