Reviews
Dan Horan has written a comprehensive creation theology for the 21st century. He brings the best of Franciscan theology into dialogue with the contemporary world in a way that is consonant with Pope Francis's Laudato Si. This work will be treasured by all who seek a new 'planetarity,' that is, a unified creation bound in love and flowing from the heart of God. -- Ilia Delio, OSF, Connelly Endowed Chair in Theology, Villanova University
All God's Creatures marks a major step forward in developing a theology of creation responsive to the ecological challenges we face. With extraordinary scholarly range and interpretive daring, Daniel Horan makes a clear and convincing case for a kinship model of creation that highlights our deep filiation with the 'other-than-human' world. Attentive to the complexities and ambiguities of the Christian tradition, yet ever on the lookout for sources of creative retrieval within it, Horan exemplifies the very best of constructive theological work today. A significant achievement. -- Brian Robinette, Boston College
Daniel Horan's All God's Creatures is a challenging, controversial and creative contribution to ecological theology. It offers a robust critique of dominion and stewardship models for understanding the human in relation to the rest of God's creation, and employs a wide range of resources that build systematically towards a community of creation paradigm. These resources include not only the work of biblical and theological scholars, but also post-colonial theory and the Franciscan theological tradition. -- Denis Edwards, Australian Catholic University
