Books of Distinction

For the theologians and scientists who contributed to this book, the care of creation is crucial to human survival and a supreme test of the reality of Christian faith. Such concern is not just the selfish interest of the developed North. Nor is it a minority enthusiasm, peculiar to bird-watchers and tree-huggers. Rather, the care of creation stems from what should be a communion of worship between the human and natural worlds. There is now a belated and increasingly evident humility abroad, which recognizes that scientific and political solutions alone are inadequate.

The Care of Creation starts from the Evangelical Declaration on the Care of Creation of 1994, which has been endorsed by several hundred church leaders throughout the world. The book is a stimulating and provocative international commentary by leading theologians and environmental practitioners. It is an examination of and commentary on the underlying issues that have to be addressed before we can robustly and sustainably produce answers to applied questions.
