Thomas Aquinas and Teilhard de Chardin

Theology

“With clarity and erudition, Goergen weaves together the thinking of two great theologians of creation, Aquinas and de Chardin. He shows how philosophical, theological, and spiritual traditions remain a rich resource for appreciating creation and motivating strategies of care in relation to it. The fruit of prayerful contemplation as well as academic study, it is a compelling presentation of a renewed Christian humanism, showing how bridges are built between tradition and modernity, religion and science, spirituality and political engagement.”
