{"product_id":"the-sacred-universe-thomas-berry-9780231149525","title":"The Sacred Universe: Earth, Spirituality, and Religion in the Twenty-First Century","description":"A leading scholar, cultural historian, and Catholic priest who spent more than fifty years writing about our engagement with the Earth, Thomas Berry possessed prophetic insight into the rampant destruction of ecosystems and the extinction of species. In this book he makes a persuasive case for an interreligious dialogue that can better confront the environmental problems of the twenty-first century. These erudite and keenly sympathetic essays represent Berry's best work, covering such issues as human beings' modern alienation from nature and the possibilities of future, regenerative forms of religious experience. Asking that we create a new story of the universe and the emergence of the Earth within it, Berry resituates the human spirit within a sacred totality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Berry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0231149522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780231149525\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Columbia University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.10w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/15\/2009 pg. 103\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/13\/2009 pg. 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCommonweal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/29\/2010 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2010","brand":"Thomas Berry","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43992902631679,"sku":"9780231149525","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_328eb26e-e7ee-4fa5-b873-00808fac0dbb.jpg?v=1683321443","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sacred-universe-thomas-berry-9780231149525","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
