Item Description...

Thomas S. Derr argues that most recent books on environmental ethics are implicitly, and sometimes explicitly, unfriendly to Christianity. Christian faith and the Western religious tradition are accused of an exploitative attitude toward the natural world which has engendered business and economic policies and institutions that have put us on the road to ruin. Derr argues that a human-centered environmental ethic accords with common sense, remains faithful to traditional Christian ethics, and avoids the anti-human dangers which must await if we succumb to the critics.

Significant critical responses to this position are provided by James A. Nash and Richard John Neuhaus, to which Derr presents a rejoinder.
