Description: "Rolston, a former Gifford Lecturer, writes with his signature interdisciplinary style and the conviction that good philosophers and theologians can look over the shoulders of scientists and the work they are doing, and then spot what is metaphysically interesting (p.xi). He has given us a broad philosophical framework, a narrative for understanding the dramatic stages of cosmic, natural, and human evolution. In this process he has carefully balanced academic information with accessibility. This book is, therefore, a wonderful addition to the current science and religion dialogue and will be stimulating and helpful for teachers, students, and everyone who cares enough about the place of us humans in cosmic and natural history."
