Difference between 1st and 2nd accounts of the Genesis

There are some differences between the first and second accounts of the Genesis, even though they are talking about basically the same story, how the world became to be like present form.

First of all, the designation of God is different. In 1st account, simply the term 'God' is used ; on the contrary, specific God's name, 'Yahweh God' is used to refer to God in 2nd account. This can be a important clue to identify the writers of the stories.

As their designations differ, so do their ability. In 1st account, God simply creates everything by speaking. For example, there comes the light right after the God says "Let there be light". His ability seems to be more able than 2nd account's God comparing that he actually does things himself to build up the world. He breathes, forms, plants, and builds the world up instead of just speaking the words to make it done. 

Also, 1st account is more carefully and deeply planned and were wrote than 2nd account. In  other words, forethought is revealed in 1st one, while rather improvization is found in 2in one. If you examine the 1st account carefully, you can find some details that makes the story look more neat. 

Lastly, there are differences in evil points of each account. First account gives a false conception that human can have a power to dominate the nature. Due to this story, human have been destroying the earth nature for their own good. On the other hand, 2nd account makes a woman out of the rib of a man; she misunderstands the saying of God; she is the one that makes Adam and herself to eat the forbidden fruit and therefore get punished by the God. This whole thing makes woman look inferior to man, and due to this,  women had been treated unequal to man in many cultures.
