Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"A wonderfully well-conceived and integrated collection that advances almost single handedly the discussion of religion and extinction. These rigorous essays by leading scholars are painful but vital reading as they direct our attention again and again to specific species, including our own. Certain to be of interest across the environmental humanities, this volume in its methodological variety and thematic diversity will shape the field."—Peter Manley Scott, University of Manchester
"The solutions to the problems of climate change, loss of places, and mass extinction cannot be found in better science and greener technology alone. As the essays in this volume so clearly argue, we must also address our basic desires, dreams, hopes, and despairs, in order to stay connected to the earth and fellow earthlings, and in order to work toward healing our planetary ills."—Whitney Bauman, Florida International University
