Book
Review – Ecological Footprints. An Essential Franciscan Guide for
Faith and Sustainable Living, by Dawn M. Nothwehr, OSF, PhD., 2012 copyright,
St. John’s, Collegeville
This
comprehensive book covers all aspects of Ecological study and it includes not
only scientific data but also a vast number of writings from other sources, --
Sts. Francis and Clare, St. Bonaventure, John Duns Scotus, Ilia Delio and other
well known Franciscans; quotes from The Old and New Testament and from Church
Documents concerning the Care of the Earth. Each section ends with Reflection
and Discussion Questions, comments on Franciscan Ecotheology, and practical
suggestions for action., plus a sizable Index. It could very well serve as a
valuable tool for a Book Study.
