  In Love in a Time of Climate Change: Honoring Creation, Establishing Justice, author Sharon Delgado invites readers to embark on a deepening journey of faith that integrates personal spirituality with action for climate justice. The book explains and demonstrates a process of discernment through which to reflect on the challenge of climate change and to discern a faithful response based on Jesus’s teaching to love God above all and our neighbors as ourselves.  
  This revised edition updates the facts. It presents what climate scientists say now about our rapidly heating planet, its causes, impacts, progression, and likely future scenarios. It describes the global movement for climate justice and engages with major conversations taking place about climate change today.  
  This edition builds on the book’s primary themes. Its premise is that in this time of climate change, loving God must include honoring God’s creation and loving our neighbors must include working to establish justice. We are called to honor and care for creation, the interconnected community of life of which we humans are a part, because creation is an expression of the presence and love of God. We are called to work to establish justice because in this time of globalized environmental harm we can’t always see the links of interdependence, responsibility, and systemic exploitation that tie us to our global neighbors. Working for climate justice for the wellbeing of all is an expression of loving our neighbors, near and far, present and future. 
  This book is an invitation to move beyond self-preoccupation and to expand our understanding of who we are and why we are here on this incomparable planet in this time of unprecedented challenge. Love in a Time of Climate Change offers a way to rise to the occasion: to face the truth about the realities of climate change, follow the light, and live with love into the future as children of the earth, children of the universe, children of God.

  Paging God - Religion in the...

  While the modern science of medicine often seems nothing short of miraculous, religion still plays an important role in the past and present of many hospitals. When three-quarters of Americans believe that God can cure people who have been given little or no chance of survival by their doctors, how do today’s technologically sophisticated health care organizations address spirituality and faith? 
    
  Through a combination of interviews with nurses, doctors, and chaplains across the United States and close observation of their daily routines, Wendy Cadge takes readers inside major academic medical institutions to explore how today’s doctors and hospitals address prayer and other forms of religion and spirituality. From chapels to intensive care units to the morgue, hospital caregivers speak directly in these pages about how religion is part of their daily work in visible and invisible ways. In Paging God: Religion in the Halls of Medicine, Cadge shifts attention away from the ongoing controversy about whether faith and spirituality should play a role in health care and back to the many ways that these powerful forces already function in healthcare today.

  Dignity for Deeply Forgetful...

  For caregivers of deeply forgetful people: a book that combines new ethics guidelines with an innovative program on how to communicate and connect with people with Alzheimer's. 
   
  How do we approach a "deeply forgetful" loved one so as to notice and affirm their continuing selfidentity? For three decades, Stephen G. Post has worked around the world encouraging caregivers to become more aware of—and find renewed hope in—surprising expressions of selfhood despite the challenges of cognitive decline. 
   
  In this book, Post offers new perspectives on the worth and dignity of people with Alzheimer's and related disorders despite the negative influence of "hypercognitive" values that place an ethically unacceptable emphasis on human dignity as based on linear rationality and strength of memory. This bias, Post argues, is responsible for the abusive exclusion of this population from our shared humanity.  
   
  With vignettes and narratives, he argues for a deeper dignity grounded in consciousness, emotional presence, creativity, interdependence, music, and a self that is not "gone" but "differently abled."  
   
  Post covers key practical topics such as: 
  • understanding the experience of dementia 
  • noticing subtle expressions of continuing selfhood, including "paradoxical lucidity" 
  • perspectives on ethical quandaries from diagnosis to terminal care and everything in between, as gleaned from the voices of caregivers 
  • how to communicate optimally and use language effectively 
  • the value of art, poetry, symbols, personalized music, and nature in revealing self-identity 
  • the value of trained "dementia companion" dogs 
   
  At a time when medical advances to cure these conditions are still out of reach and the most recent drugs have shown limited effectiveness, Post argues that focusing discussion and resources on the relational dignity of these individuals and the respite needs of their caregivers is vital. Grounding ethics  
  on the equal worth of all conscious human beings, he provides a cautionary perspective on preemptive assisted suicide based on cases that he has witnessed. He affirms vulnerability and interdependence as the core of the human condition and celebrates caregivers as advocates seeking social and economic  
  justice in an American system where they and their loved ones receive only leftover scraps. Racially inclusive and grounded in diversity, Dignity for Deeply Forgetful People also includes a workshop appendix focused on communication and connection, "A Caregiver Resilience Program," by Rev. Dr. Jade C. Angelica.
