The Glory of the Cosmos: A Catholic Approach to the Natural World (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781989905272)

In recent years controversy over the Catholic Church's stance on environmentalism has increased. In order to avoid the errors promoted by some environmentalists-sometimes even going as far as a revived paganism-some Catholics have embraced a point of view rooted ultimately in deism or Cartesian philosophy. This book seeks to explore the question from the standpoint of authentic Catholic theology and philosophy, the theology and philosophy of the Angelic Doctor, St. Thomas Aquinas. Readers, regardless of their ideology, will be challenged to rethink their positions, to look beyond the political strife of our time and engage with the timeless teaching of the Church.
