Winner of the John Templeton Award for Theological Promise, 2009, this book argues that the Christian doctrine of creatio ex nihilo (creation out of nothing) sets up a support system for a 'logic of domination' toward human and earth over others. Conceptually inspired by the work of theologian Catherine Keller and feminist philosopher of the environment Val Plumwood, it follows a genealogical method in examining how the concept of creation out of nothing materializes in the world throughout different periods in the history of the Christian West.
