Beyond the Modern Mind: The Spiritual and Ethical Challenge of the Environmental Crisis

What is needed in our time of enviromental crisis is a new way of thinking about ourselves, God, Jesus, and nature. The old way of thinking - our "modern" way - is the real culprit that has created and fostered the enviromental crisis, claims Douglas Bowman. He goes on to provide a theological critique of our thought and imagination and suggests an alternative, more comprehensive way of thinking based on recent findings in science and Christian theology. This book presents an explicit new worldview and suggests a spirituality and ethical posture reflective of this new orientation. To what end? To the end that our children may inherit the earth. --- from books back cover
