The human genome project not only challenges such doctrines as creation, eschatology and anthropology, but also raises issues of social justice and medical ethics. This book brings together theologians, scientists and social scientists to debate the human genome project.

Here, experts in the environment, theology and science argue that the challenge posed to society by biotechnology lies not only in risk/benefit analysis of individual genetic technologies and interventions, but also in the way we think about human identity and our relationship to the natural world.

'Pierre Teilhard de Chardin on People and Planet' argues that Teilhard's cosmic mysticism and intense interest in both cosmological and evolutionary sciences are highly relevant to current debates about how best to construct a meaningful spirituality.
