Timothy Beal, the Florence Harkness Professor of Religion at Case Western Reserve University, recently received positive reviews on his newest book, When Time Is Short: Finding Our Way in the Anthropocene.

Publishers Weekly described Beal’s book as a “deconstruct(ion) of human exceptionalism” that confronts the impending peril of the climate crisis. In When Time Is Short, Beal disputes the capitalistic hierarchy that places nature below humanity and explores a Christian take on humanity’s relationship with the earth.
