Thomas Berry had a gentle yet mesmerizing and luminescent presence that was evident to anyone who spent time with him. His intellectual scope and erudite manner were compelling, and the breadth, depth, clarity and elegance of his vision was breathtaking. He enthralled thousands of people who came to listen and learn from him in academic and public settings and he was an intellectual giant and cultural visionary of extraordinary stature. Thomas Berry's vast knowledge and specific expertise as a cultural historian -united with his concern for the future of the planet-reveals him to be a genuine original thinker. Those who knew him, in person or through his publications, were aware of his genius and his appeal for a viable future for humanity and the natural world. Many know of his proposal for a functional cosmology, the need for a new story, and a vital Earth sensitive spirituality, but few know the intellectual roots of his thesis because he presented his thoughts as a seamless and studied synthesis. This book is about those intellectual roots and particular emphases and insights that are hidden within Thomas Berry's proposal.These essays probe into and reveal distinct themes that permeate his work, but are not obvious upon first glance. The authors of this collection were students of Berry, and did their Ph.D. work using elements of his thought. More importantly, Thomas Berry's influence has both grounded and oriented their intellectual pursuits.
