Summary

Gordon Kaufman's bold and highly regarded works over the last thirty years have pushed theologians to examine honestly, if painfully, their most cherished assumptions about God. Now, in this major contribution to the theology-and-science debate, he argues that our traditional thinking about and worship of God have prepared us badly for perhaps the most important problem we face today-the ecological crisis.

Author Biography

Gordon D. Kaufman is Professor of Theology Emeritus at Harvard Divinity School.
