All Creation is Groaning/A Vision of Ecology

Abstract: A 6 page book review. All Creation is Groaning, An Interdisciplinary Vision for Life in a Sacred Universe (1999), edited by Carol Dempsey and Russell Butkus, is a fascinating anthology of essays that collectively offer an alternative vision of the environment, the current ecological crisis and the role of humanity within this complex web. This is truly a multidisciplinary text, as the its title indicates, as the contributors each present arguments that pertain to their particular field and perspective. However, basic themes can be found that run throughout these essays and which serve to illuminate the vision that is the overall point of the book. This review follows several of these themes in order to evaluate the degree of success that the editors achieve in presenting a persuasive, cohesive argument for their defining vision and the reviewer concludes that the editors achieve this purpose.
