Review # 1 was written on 2014-06-02 00:00:00 Hugo bonilla Bonilla Thirty years ago, this book would have been far more valuable. An alphabetical compendium of thumbnail sketches of the lives of significant women in the history of North American religion, such a book could have been the starting place for research by seminarians, preachers, and women looking for proof that they were not alone in desiring to serve God in traditionally "male" roles. But now, that work is done far better by the internet. Googling any of the names in this book produces far more information than can be provided in this handbook. In order to be really useful, even as an impetus to more research, this volume needs more complete indexing. Who, for example, were the women active in a particular decade? In a particular region? In a particular denomination or tradition? Such listings would be a boon to the beginning researcher still. Nevertheless, it is handy as a book to peruse when there are just a few minutes. Even in greatly abbreviated form, the biographies of these women inspire.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-01-01 00:00:00 David Thieroff "The environment crisis if before anything else a spiritual crisis" "It is the secularized worldview that reduces nature to a purely material domain cut of from the world of the Spirit to be plundered at will for what is usually called human welfare, but which really means the illusory satisfaction of a never-ending greed without which consumer society would not exist." "Unless man realizes his relativity in light of the Absolute, he is bound to absolutize himself and his opinions no matter how hard he tries to demonstrate an unintelligent humility vis-à-vis the animals and plants or nebulae and molecules." "For the be truly human is to transcend the human. To be satisfied with the merely human is to fall ultimately below the human state."
