Discusses ecofeminism in the context of the social, political and
ecological consequences of globalization. The book includes case
studies, essays, theoretical works, and articles on ecofeminist

Mexico, Kenya, Chile, India, Brazil, Canada, England and the United
States.
Whether understood as sin, as embracing all manner of suffering and
injustice, or as the inexplicable human choice of evil over good,
evil has historically been described and pondered chiefly through
male categories understood as a universal viewpoint. Likewise
salvation. Gebara here presents an alternative, feminist approach
to evil and salvation. She allows women to voice their personal
suffering from their own contexts, thereby manifesting their many
differences. She then introduces a perspective on evil and
salvation based in gender analysis to address specifically "the
evil women do," the evil they suffer, and women's redemptive
experiences of God and salvation.
Visioning the cosmos through a liberation-oriented lens.
