Concern for the environmant has developed and intensified over the last few decades to the point where it ow dominates much of our contemporary political landscape and culture. The rise of religious environmentalism in particualr adds its own distinctive voice to the debate, for it seeks to trace both the malaise and a potential solution to environmental understanding.
In Eco-Theology, Celia Deane Drummond offers a comprehensive book for this burgeoning field of enquiry that highlights and seeks to evaluate the merits or otherwise of contemporary eco-theologies. She introduces the reader to critical debates in eco-theology tracing trends from around the globe and key theological responses, and encourages reflection and analysis through further reading sections at the end of each chapter and questions for discussion. It will prove an essential guide for students and general readers with a serious interest in the topic.
