“Written in clear, careful prose, this book makes an important
contribution to the growing field of theology of nature. Bringing
the wisdom of the early church theologian Athanasius into dialogue
with recent evolutionary science, it opens new possibilities for
Christian thought and practice. Besides the sharp insights on
offer, Edwards’s own magnanimous vision moves the heart. The book
is a gift, a beautiful theology of the world centered on the
energizing presence of the triune
God.”
Elizabeth Johnson, Fordham University
Denis Edwards has written prolifically in the areas of ecology and
pneumatology. Partaking of God addresses questions concerning the
evolution and ecology in the light of the theology of Athanasius of
Alexandria. The book is written in a graceful, poetic style.
Edwards explains complex ideas clearly and his insights are well
worth both critical reflection and prayer.
