Excellent book introducing the thought of the scientist, theologian, and philosopher Teilhard de Chardin; one of the most original theological thinkers of the 20th century merging evolution with Christian mysticism. McCarty’s 1976 study arrives just as Teilhard’s ideas were being re-examined posthumously and controversially.
Teilhard de Chardin by Doran McCarty (Word Books, Texas, 1976) offers an accessible and balanced introduction to the thought of the Jesuit paleontologist and theologian Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. McCarty traces Teilhard’s synthesis of science and spirituality, evolution and faith, and his vision of a universe moving toward divine consciousness. A clear and engaging overview of one of the 20th century’s most influential and brilliant Christian thinkers.
