Said Nursi (1877-1960) was an advocate of a form of Islam strongly committed to non-violence and constructive engagement with the West and Christianity. He has six million followers - the Nursi community - primarily in Turkey. Yet many in the USA and Europe are not familiar with his important work; this book seeks to rectify that gap. In Globalization, Ethics and Islam, Jewish, Christian and Islamic scholars reflect upon the achievement of Said Nursi and apply his thought to the complex issues of non-violence, dialogue and globalization.

They advocate for future action and research in this field, emphasizing the importance of incorporating religion as a crucial component of environmental management and problem solving.The Handbook on Religion and the Environment is an essential reference for students and academics in the fields of environmental studies, environmental science, religious studies, and political science.
