Literature for the Environment Award Recipient

Raping Louisiana: A Diary of Deceit
Winner of the LiFE Award
 
byPhilip F. Harris

   A non-fictional account of clean-up efforts after the devastations caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It is not,  filled with facts, figures and statistics. This story puts a human face on an area that was raped by nature and deceived by its government. Based upon the diary of a truck driver by the name of Stephen Burgoyne, we see a first hand account of the daily routine, the challenges and the bureaucratic ineptness that still plagues the residents of Louisiana.  Steve tells a story in his diary entries that is far removed from the "official accounts" of government agencies and “spin doctors. If author, Philip Harris's account reflects and accurate portrait of our nation’s emergency preparedness system, you may want to be sure you have your own personal emergency plan ready.

Over the Next Hill
An Inspirational Biography
 By Nadir Martello

   My first concern is to tell my children who their Dad is. This means telling them the facts of life, my life, in the way I see it and live it - life with its ups and downs -- since 1966 especially, seen and understood for what it is under the light of the Gospel.
  Is it a failure? It is not up to me, nor anybody else, to judge. God is the ultimate Judge. I am not writing for money, or glory, or to try to justify myself.
  I am writing in order to leave a legacy with this message: " I am what I am - for what it's worth - not because of me, but because of Jesus Christ to whom I committed myself, totally and unconditionally, and whom I love above everything else, even my own life

Eden And The Individual: Christianity For The 21st Century
By Emil Mihelich

   Even more so than we might realize, the Garden of Eden story has supplied the foundation for Western civilization ever since the Roman Emperor Theodosius the Great granted the orthodox version of Christianity imperial support in the fourth century A.D. Faced with the scientific and economic challenges of the 21st century, however, it's time to revisit our traditional understanding of Christianity, complete with its determination of individual responsibility as supported by St. Augustine's "City of God" and his original sin interpretation of the Eden story. What is the role of the responsible individual in an era that has witnessed the waning of the power and influence of institutional authority built on St. Augustine's persuasive interpretation of the events in the Garden of Eden? Without throwing the baby out with the bathwater, and by paying homage to Augustine's sacrifice and commitment to belief, "Eden and the Individual: Christianity for the 21st Century" explores that question and offers creative conclusions directed toward enhancing the meaning of individual lives and, therefore, toward preserving the order and structure of collective Western life.

RE: Viewing, Thinking, Turning
By Alan Wittbecker

   An ecologist reviews articles, books, and conversations on ecology and forestry, on animals and computers, and on conservation and wealth. The authors of the original works mostly use simple arguments to present narrow perspectives, without regard to fallacies, complexities, or contradictions.
  Alan Wittbecker reviews the works but places them within an ecological perspective. He suggests rethinking the human situation in a larger framework, using new images and large-scale, long-term planning to balance human and ambihuman nature. He suggests returning to the problems using thought experiments to address the wholeness, change, and development that characterize complex systems.
