Berry was an immensely learned man. His lifetime of study led him across many groups of religion, philosophies, cultures, and science. His vision of a new universe story synthesized these many fields of thought. This book of fourteen essays elucidates these many areas of knowledge that went into his planetary vision. -- Rosemary Radford Ruether, Claremont School of Theology\u003cbr\u003eThomas Berry is one of the powerful and original thinkers of the last century; it's very good to see his crucial work set in context. -- Bill McKibben, author of \"Radio Free Vermont\"\u003cbr\u003eThis book makes clear that Berry’s insight that \"the universe is a communion of subjects\" has an importance comparable to that of the evolutionary origins of human beings, the unconscious dimension of experience, and the relativity of space and time. Perhaps now, in the twenty-first century, this book will enable far more people to appreciate his vision and to appropriate it, critically but humbly. -- John Cobb, Claremont Lincoln University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword Brian Swimme   Introduction Heather Eaton  Chapter 1: Thomas Berry and the New Story: An Introduction to the Work of Thomas Berry Mary Evelyn Tucker  Chapter 2: Exploring Thomas Berry’s Historical Vision John Grim  Part I.
