Martin D. Yaffe's Judaism and Environmental Ethics: A Reader is a
well-conceived exploration of three interrelated questions: Does
the Hebrew Bible, or subsequent Jewish tradition, teach
environmental responsibility or not? What Jewish teachings, if any,
appropriately address today's environmental crisis? Do ecology,
Judaism, and philosophy work together, or are they at odds with
each other in confronting the current crisis? Yaffe's extensive
introduction analyzes and appraises the anthologized essays, each
of which serves to deepen and enrich our understanding of current
reflection on Judaism and environmental ethics. Brought together in
one volume for the first time, the most important scholars in the
field touch on diverse disciplines including deep ecology,
political philosophy, and biblical hermeneutics. This ambitious
book illustrates precisely because of its interdisciplinary focus
how longstanding disagreements and controversies may spark further
interchange among ecologists, Jews, and philosophers. Both
accessible and thoroughly scholarly, this dialogue will benefit
anyone interested in ethical and religious considerations of
contemporary ecology."
