The Lost Gospel of the Earth: A Call for Renewing Nature, Spirit, and Politics
Editor-B. Ras
Sierra Club Books for Children, 1996-09. Hardcover. Good. Hardcover with dust jacket, Copr. 1996, First Printing. Drawing upon the work of John Muir, Henry David Thoreau, St. Francis of Assisi, and even the Dalai Lama and Pope John Paul II, activist California state senator Tom Hayden writes that religion is the answer to today's environmental crisis. Though he berates many religions for perpetuating man's dominance of earth, he cites a growing awareness of the sanctity of all creation. He calls for the unification of increasing numbers of eco-spiritualists and a revamping of traditional religious doctrines--including the Ten Commandments--to include guidelines for taking care of the earth and to acknowledge the dependency of our own lives on its healthful existence. (From Editorial Review.) Book is in excellent shape; pages are tight, binding is good. In stock and ready to ship today. ( more information)
