Creation's Diversity: Voices from Theology and Science: Issues in Science and Theology

Editat de Willem Drees, Hubert Meisinger, Taede Smedes
en Limba Engleză Paperback – mar 2008
This collection of substantial essays explores the question of how to relate environmental engagement in the context of religious convictions. In the first part of the book, 'A Diversity of Visions of Creation', six essays address various views of creation. In the second part of the book, 'Sustaining Creation's Diversity', the concept of sustainability is analyzed critically, given the dynamic character of natural reality as unveiled by the sciences. This is followed by some reflections on ethical and theological considerations regarding the idea that we ought to sustain diversity.

Recenzii

"A useful contribution to the continuing dialogue between theologies and the sciences on environmental issues." - Reviews in Science and Religion
"This collection of essays is the fruitful outcome of a conference on science and theology...Timely and relevant with thoughtful and balanced arguments.  The question of sustainable living is not only a religious one but a cultural and political one as well.  Drees and colleagues highlight the imminent need for theological reflection and dialogue, as the future of sustaining creation's diversity becomes more tenuous." -Ilia Delio, Worship, Vol. 83, July 2009
