Description
Reviews
"Perhaps the most important contribution of this book is Peterson's retrieval of a strand of Christian theology that focuses on the human task to sustain, restore, and improve the conditions of our incomplete and damaged creation -- including humans as part of creation -- rather than to accept as God-given the state of the creation as we find it today. . . . Opens new terrain in bioethics for evangelical Christians. . . . One doesn't have to agree with every move Peterson makes here to recognize the great significance of this book for the current debate." -- David P. Gushee Mercer University
