Editorial Reviews
Earthlight, Vol. 14 No. 3, Spring 2005
Would recommend for a thorough, insightful, inspiring discussion of the role religions are beginning to play in the ecological crisis.
Book Description
History illustrates the power of religion to bring about change. Mary Evelyn Tucker describes how world religions have begun to move from a focus on God-human and human-human relations to encompass human-earth relations. She argues that, in light of the environmental crisis, religion should move from isolated orthodoxy to interrelated dialogue and use its authority for liberation rather than oppression.
