The Re-enchantment of Nature by Alister E Mcgrath
Alister McGrath believes that it is religion, not science, that will reawaken our wonder and respect for the natural world and save us from ecological disaster. In this book, he aims to reposition religion, and Christianity in particular, as the way in which we can truly rediscover the beauty of nature. He argues that science has abused and exploited our environment and, by ridiculing religion, has destroyed our sense of wonder in nature. This is a vigorous defence of religion's relationship with nature, from a writer with doctorates in both Divinity and Molecular Biology from Oxford University. It includes an attack on Richard Dawkins and other scientists who claim religion has no modern day relevance.
Alister McGrath is Professor of Historical Theology at the University of Oxford and Principal of Wycliffe Hall, Oxford. He is a leading authority on the history of Christian thought, especially in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and is the author of many studies in this field. He also holds a Doctorate in Molecular Biology.
