"In this insightful little book, Schaeffer provides a well-considered theological context for environmental discussions. Christians will differ in particular applications of the principles he expounds, but few will deny that he provides the right framework."--Fred G. Zaspel,Executive Editor, Books at a Glance; Pastor, Reformed Baptist Church, Franconia, Pennsylvania "I first read this book over fifty years ago at university. I was a newly converted Christian and Francis Schaeffer was all the rage. The book spoke to an issue as fresh today as it was then--the ecological crisis facing planet earth. Our culture lacks an understanding of origins, purpose, and destiny, and all three are necessary in order to address the issue of saving planet earth. A doctrine of creation fueled by humanity's moral responsibility as God's image bearer and driven by the certainty that the cosmos is going to be renewed and transformed is the only culturally relevant idea to properly address the current crisis.

Schaeffer was correct then and remains correct today. A massively prophetic book that speaks to our time. Christians should heed what it says."--Derek W. H. Thomas , Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina; Chancellor's Professor, Reformed Theological Seminary "This book is a remarkably sane approach to environmental concerns. Man's alienation from God leads to other alienations and ruptures, including our failure to responsibly exercise dominion in this world. As Schaeffer shows, Christ overcomes these divisions so that Christians are the world's true environmentalists who take seriously our responsibility to care for God's creation.

How can we, in Christ, exercise godly dominion in this world? This easy-to-digest book is just the answer."--Mark Jones , Senior Minister, Faith Reformed Presbyterian Church (PCA), Vancouver, British Columbia.
