Reviews
'How can we live with hope in the midst of a deeply wounded world? In prose as lucid in style as it is illuminating in content, Norman Wirzba's This Sacred Life builds a patient, forceful, and elegant case that knowing where we are is crucial to understanding both who we are as human beings and how we are to live in ways that nourish our own being together with that of the world that sustains us. Drawing on biology, ecology, anthropology, economics, and psychology as well as theology to show how our lives are densely interwoven with the well-being of soil, air, and water, he provides an arresting vision of the gift such a rooted and entangled life can be.'

Synopsis
This Sacred Life offers a deep philosophical and religious articulation of the meaning and purpose of human life in a world wounded by environmental degradation and social injustice. It recasts human identity and vocation in terms of the healing and repair of the world and its communities., In a time of climate change, environmental degradation, and social injustice, the question of the value and purpose of human life has become urgent. What are the grounds for hope in a wounded world? This Sacred Life gives a deep philosophical and religious articulation of humanity's identity and vocation by rooting people in a symbiotic, meshwork world that is saturated with sacred gifts. The benefits of artificial intelligence and genetic enhancement notwithstanding, Norman Wirzba shows how an account of humans as interdependent and vulnerable creatures orients people to be a creative, healing presence in a world punctuated by wounds. He argues that the commodification of places and creatures needs to be resisted so that all life can be cherished and celebrated. Humanity's fundamental vocation is to bear witness to God's love for creaturely life, and to commit to the construction of a hospitable and beautiful world.
