This study presents a ecofeminist theology that illuminates a path toward "Earth-healing" - a new relationship between men and women, communities and nations, and humans and the Earth. The author sifts through the legacy of Christian and Western history to trace the development of beliefs and ethics that define people's relationships with each other and the Earth. Rosemary Radford Ruether is the author of "Women-Church" and "Sexism and God-Talk".
