At the turn of the millennium, 100 species disappear from the planet every day because of human activity. A leading scientist has called this the Earth's Sixth Great Extinction, comparable to the catastrophe that wiped out the dinosaurs. Humanity's hope lies with two groups of people.

First are those of faith who fight against the forces of poverty, ignorance and greed that are combining to endanger us and our planetary home. Second are the scientists who can explain how we may best use our resources to save the Earth's diversity and develop sustainable ways of advancing human life. Still, many religious people distrust not only those of other faiths, but scientists, as well; and many view religion and spirituality with disdain.

Isn't it time we all began working together to save the Earth and ourselves? In simple, clear prose, Awakening: In Pursuit of the Divine Paradox explains how Christians can respect the work in good conscience both with the scientific community and with people of other faiths to save the planet. Author Gregory R. Huth explains how the global, spiritual Great Awakening that already is underway can get faith and scientific communities to do just this.

About the Author

Gregory Huth has been a life-long Christian and has divided much of his adult life between editorial work and community service. He was involved in a Tibetan Resettlement Project, which started him on the path to unite Eastern and Western religions. He received the John Spangler Nicolas Prize for his volunteer efforts on behalf of senior citizens in 1972 and in 1997 was awarded an honorary Melanchthon Fellowship for his many years of service to the Lutheran Ministry at Yale University. He has a master's degree in Public Health from the Yale School of Medicine and is an award-winning writer in the medical and scientific profession. Awakening combines his medical and scientific background with his Christian beliefs and explores many thought-provoking questions that are not threatening to either group.
