Food, Farming, and Faith (S U N Y Series on Religion and the Environment) - Softcover

"Fick succeeds in writing a thought-provoking book that is a worthwhile read for everyone interested in sustainable agriculture and its relationship to the Bible. He reminds us of our connection to the past. His clear, warmly personal style that is free of scientific jargon, invites even the skeptic to consider his valuable perspectives as we seek solutions toward a more sustainable future." -- Journal of Renewable Agriculture and Food Systems

"...an insightful book ... It is impossible to categorize this unique book, but it will be valuable to readers interested in the future of food production viewed from the perspective of biblical teachings ... The extensive chapter notes and bibliography could make this volume useful for academic curricula or for the start of further research." --CHOICE

"In case you thought environmentalism and Christianity were at odds, here's a book that makes clear, in great and rewarding detail, just how closely allied they actually are. This will be a useful primer for the blossoming green religious movement." -- Bill McKibben, author of The Comforting Whirlwind: God, Job, and the Scale of Creation

"This book represents a good juxtaposition of the author's personal story and life experience with both agricultural principles and biblical analysis, making for both a pleasant and valuable reading experience." -- John E. Carroll, author of Sustainability and Spirituality
