Bauman, W: Religion and Ecology

This is a very impressive book -- it is a visionary synthesis of the most important issues concerning the intersection of science, religion, politics and philosophy. Bauman weaves a complex and powerful narrative in his constitution of a planetary community. Religion and Ecology: Developing a Planetary Ethic is a unique contribution to a growing body of work that critically rethinks our ideas of nature to vitalize the possibilities of material and ecological thinking. -- Clayton Crockett, University of Central Arkansas Scholarship has needed this book for quite a while, one that boldly synthesizes new materialism, queer theory, ecology and spirituality. -- Tim Morton, Rita Shea Guffey Chair in English, Rice University
