Pressestimmen
'Northcott does an extremely competent job of summary and selection in working his way through these huge topics - so much so that one could well imagine this book becoming established as a useful introductory textbook on Christianity and ecology.' Linda Woodhead, Church Times '... a valuable contribution to one of the more important debates around.' Bernard Hoose, The Tablet 'Michael Northcott has succeeded in producing a real and significant work of scholarship ... In places I found it almost inspirational and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to any intelligent person to read, whatever their academic background and view of Christianity.' Michael Reiss, Crucible
