Swan Voices from the Gathering Storm is an important book that presents a broad view of our environmental predicament. It puts its finger on a crucial part of the problem: something deep down is wrong; we are guided by antiquated systems of beliefs, ethics, and religions unsuited for today's global, industrial, corporate world. As currently perceived, corporations are guided of necessity by one principle, maximizing profits, a principle that is leading ultimately to irreversible environmental disaster. The book tells us that only a religious revolution can bring about the needed change in the structure of corporations and their relation to society. Those concerned about the unthinking, dangerous way we are approaching our future should read this book. - Peter Seidel, environmental architect and author of Invisible Walls: Why We Ignore the Damage We Inflict on the Planet. . .and Ourselves The devastation toward which the trends examined [in this book] point defies imagination. Yet there is little sign that they are being met with anything other than massive denial. The authors are to be commended for continuing to call attention to the symptoms, and sound the alarm that might awaken some from the slumberof the status quo. . .Without the voices of solid science and concerned intelligence, there is little prospect for avoiding the looming apocalypse. Ironically, perverted religious views play a large role in contributing to the magnitude of the problem, whereas the central values of religion at its best, advocating love for and stewardship of all creation, offer solid grounds for rational hope for survival of humanity and the welfare of this planet. May the readers of this volume benefit from its wisdom and may they help - against all odds - to reverse the impending tragedy. . . . - James Megivern, professor emeritus and retired chair, Dept. of Philosophy and Religion, Univ. of North Carolina at Wilmington
