Summary
Restored to Earth provides the first comprehensive examination of the religious and ethical dimensions and significance of contemporary restoration practice, an ethical framework that advances the field of environmental ethics in a more positive, action-oriented, experience-based direction. Van Wieren brings together insights and examples from restoration ecology, environmental ethics, religious studies, and conservation and Christian thought, as well as her own personal experiences in ecological restoration, to propose a new restoration ethic grounded in the concrete, hands-on experience of humans working as partners with the land.
The book is published by Georgetown University Press.

Critic reviews
"Gretel Van Wieren's book is a powerful and eloquent articulation of the mental and spiritual impacts of ecological restoration.... This is a noble, inspiring, and beautiful book." (Stephen Kellert, Yale University School of Forestry and Environmental Studies)
"This ground-breaking, interdisciplinary book skillfully explains the ethical debates over ecological restoration and then connects them to religious ideas of restoration in ways that deepen civic, theological, and scientific conversations." (Willis Jenkins, University of Virginia)
"Gretel Van Wieren has written the definitive book linking the practice of ecological restoration to religious environmental ethics." (Dan Spencer, University of Montana)
