"In the years since his death in 1955, the influence of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin - renowned French Jesuit theologian, mystic, and scientist - has continued to grow. A true prophets of our age, Teilhard helprd bring Christian theology into creative dialogue with science, articulated a new mysticism, and explored profound dimensions of the human condition. This ... biography is enhanced with scores of photographs that document his dramatic life - from the trenches of World War I, to his groundbreaking paleontological research in China and travels in the Gobi Desert. It explores his difficulties with church authorities, the posthumous publication of his writings and his ongoing legacy. It is the ideal introduction to the life and thought of a man whose vision and spirituality speak ever more vitally to the concerns of our time"--Publisher's description.
