About the Book

The warnings are loud and clear: the world is dangerously overpopulated; natural resources are becoming scarce; catastrophic manmade global warming could lead to the death of our planet. Are these accurate predictions we ignore at our own peril, or are they politically motivated scare tactics designed to promote a radical agenda? In this important book, respected author E. Calvin Beisner brings biblical principles of theology, anthropology, and ethics to bear on these crucial questions. What do the Scriptures say about population, freedom/civil government, natural resources, and management of the environment? Is man meant to be servant, master, or steward of the earth? This compelling study will help everyone concerned about the future of the earth make informed decisions on strategic issues of our day.

Calvin Beisner, PhD, is Founder and President of The Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, former Associate Professor of Historical Theology and Social Ethics at Knox Theological Seminary, and former Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies at Covenant College. In the 2014 International Conference on Climate Change the Heritage Foundation gave him the Outstanding Spokesman for Faith, Science, and Stewardship Award. He is a fellow or advisor of the Acton Institute, the Institute for Humane Studies, the Atlas Economic Research Institute, the Heartland Institute, and the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow. An author and speaker on the application of Christian worldview, theology, and ethics to economics and the environment, political philosophy, public policy, and reasons for faith, he has written fourteen books and over a thousand articles and book reviews, plus many unpublished lectures and papers, technical and popular. He and his wife Deborah Melvin Beisner, a portrait painter, have seven children and nine grandchildren.

Review :
"Everything Calvin Beisner writes in Prospects for Growth is excellent. His theory is sound, his data are voluminous, thoroughly researched, and to the point. Congratulations to Mr. Beisner." Julian L. Simon, author, The Ultimate Resource "Calvin Beisner ably debunks the modern mythology surrounding the questions of human responsibility and environmental resources while constructing a sane and biblical alternative. Prospects for Growth makes a valuable contribution." George Grant, Pastor of Parish Presbyterian Church, Founder of New College Franklin, President of the King's Meadow Study Center and Founder of Franklin Classical School "Calvin Beisner has successfully translated the mandate of Genesis 1:28 into hard facts. This impressive volume should be used as a college textbook in every economics curriculum in the country." D. James Kennedy, Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church "Calvin Beisner's new book displays no scarcity of shrewd biblical insight, joined to abundant fact and argument . . . a lively defense of liberty." Michael Novak, American Enterprise Institute
