"""This volume is a boon to Wesleyan scholarship, showing how the lens of key Wesleyan convictions applied to contemporary concerns and anxieties surrounding technology and the future of human being can offer fruitful dialogue."" --Victoria Lorrimar, senior research fellow, University of Notre Dame Australia ""This volume embodies two central dimensions of John Wesley's theological orientation. First, it seeks to bring God's revelation in the book of Scripture and God's revelation in the 'book of creation' into dialogue, allowing each to better inform our interpretation of the other. Second, it highlights and extends Wesley's critique of the negative impact of the anthropocentrism of modern Western culture upon the larger creation--calling for a discipleship that imitates the God whose 'mercy is over ALL God's works.' It is a welcome contribution to the continuing vitality of the Wesleyan tradition."" --Randy L. Maddox, professor emeritus of Wesleyan and Methodist studies, Duke Divinity School ""This excellent volume of essays delves into the intricacies of human existence in an era of growing dependence on technology in our daily lives. The authors acknowledge that these technologies bear both the promise of advancement and the peril of potentially impacting human identity, individuality, and overall well-being. This volume promises to invigorate your theological imagination while offering valuable insights and resources from the Wesleyan theological tradition to navigate the challenges and possibilities of a (post)human future."" --Dion A. Forster, professor of public theology, Stellenbosch University"
