In the spirit of Teilhard de Chardin, David Toolan unites science and spirituality in a stunning new way. By accenting the positive idea that our evolutionary cosmos is filled with promise, Toolan shows that a Christ-centered, incarnational faith is the most appropriate setting for contemporary scientific cosmology. The result is a fresh basis for an ecological ethic, in effect a new social contract with nature.
At once visionary and practical, At Home in the Cosmos offers a holistic vision sure to expand awareness of our place and purpose on earth and in the universe. “Original, sophisticated, and ethically inspiring—this is an important contribution to the dialogue between science and religion.”—John Haught, author of God After Darwin
David Toolan, S.J., is associate editor of America magazine, and the author of Facing West from California’s Shores.
