“In the face of environmental degradation and global climate change, scientific knowledge alone cannot tell us what we ought to do. Ethical values, moral guidance and principled reasons for doing the right thing are also essential. Moral Ground (Trinity University Press, Sept. 2010), edited by Corvallis author and philosophy professor Kathleen Dean Moore and Michael P. Nelson, gathers the testimony of more than 80 visionaries — theologians , scientists, elected officials, business leaders, naturists, activists, and writers — to present a compelling call for moral responsibility to our planet.”—Grass Roots Books & Music, Corvallis, OR
