Reviews

This book is an extremely valuable resource for anyone trying to understand—or teach—the connections among gender, the environmental crisis, and globalization.
*Roger S. Gottlieb, author of A Greener Faith: Religious Environmentalism and our Planet's Future*

The work is weighty. It is not offering fluff and uncritical new age spirituality. Rather, most articles deal with concrete realities and all the authors are self-reflective—identifying both the contributions and the limitations of different elements of, or types of, ecofeminism.
*Canadian Woman Studies*

This book is important to scholars in religion, gender, and environmental studies, but also should find its way into scholarship and teaching about international development and comparative ethics.
*Religious Studies Review*

The editors have collected a wonderful sampling of the field...This collection is a testament to the power of ecofeminism to bring about global justice.
*Waterwheel*

Ecofeminism and Globalization demonstrates the power of ecofeminism to unmask injustice in its many manifestations, and how feminist religious insights bring about social change in the real world.
*Mary E. Hunt, Women's Alliance for Theology, Ethics, and Ritual (WATER)*
