From the very beginning everyone who read the Biblical accounts of creation carefully understood that human beings shared with God a wonderful responsibility for the Earth and all the creatures upon it. The divine command was not to dominate, but to cultivate and preserve all things (Genesis 2:15). Father Eschweiler has spent a major portion of his half century of priestly and pastoral ministry pondering that summons and trying to help others understand and share its call. This book is the fruit of his study and reflection, filled with information and practical suggestions for every person of any age. Short readable units are permeated with a lively sense of faith in God's presense everywhere. Parents, teachers, and catechists will be inspired by the concreteness of all the observations included in the book. This is a very practical primer. At the beginning of a new millenium, people everywhere sense the call to take our fragile Earth more seriously, and to tend it more lovingly. This volume will make that challenge more engaging and perhaps even enjoyable. The book is ideal for a quick read... and then a more leisurely study. The discussion questions serve to make its contents group friendly.
