In addition to filling this important void, \u003ci\u003eBetween Heaven and Earth: Christian Perspectives on Environmental Protection\u003c\/i\u003e is also unique in at least two ways. First, it frames Christian responses to ethical questions as they are understood by modern conservation ethicists. Second, it addresses issues of conservation management and policy as they really exist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis captivating volume begins by framing the complex interaction between ethics, environment, and faith and the relation of that interaction to questions of environmental ethics. Subsequent chapters illuminate a biblical understanding of the human relationship to nature and the church's teachings and practices regarding that relationship, illustrated through the lives of scholars and saints. The book concludes with an examination of the ways in which Christian practice and teaching can shape environmental policy today and the ways in which partnerships can be built between the church and the environmental community.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFred Van Dyke\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of biology, chair of the Department of Biology, and director of the environmental studies program at Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.2 x 9.3 x 6.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42566751289440,"sku":"9780313375361","price":132.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/eVUzWHBpaGgwZytmaVJOUVJIYXd2dz09.webp?v=1770602141","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/between-heaven-and-earth-christian-perspectives-on-environmental-protection-hardcover-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
