“This book is a timely examination of humanity’s interactions with the natural world. Professor Cain uses the words and actions of these four spiritual leaders to advocate for better stewardship of our natural resources. He reminds us that we are a part of nature, not separate from it, and he encourages us to live more mindfully, consuming what we need, not simply what we want. All of this is told through the lens of religious figures who were, for the most part, ahead of their time in terms of their regard for the natural world. Through them we gain understanding for the need to care for Earth and its human and nonhuman inhabitants. This is an important message for everyone regardless of their religious commitments and practices.”
