Humanity's relationship to nature is central to the work of Pierre
Teilhard de Chardin, an influential priest and scientist of the
twentieth century. Teilhard believed that spiritual development
must be viewed alongside material development and that evolutionary
theory lies at the heart of humanity's understanding of its place
in the world. 'Pierre Teilhard de Chardin on People and Planet'
argues that Teilhard's cosmic mysticism and intense interest in
both cosmological and evolutionary sciences are highly relevant to
current debates about how best to construct a meaningful
spirituality. The book offers a critical revision of Teilhard's
thought in the light of current debates in evolutionary science,
eco-theology and environmental ethics. The essays present fresh
interpretations of Teilhard's work and point to the significance of
his thought in the contemporary study of science and religion.
