- "We met in May 1987 in Amsterdam and Douglas John Hall, a member of the group, describes in (the edited version of) his introduction who participated, how the group worked etc. Looking at the outcome of the Amsterdam meeting, I would like to call it a 'theological hamburger': there is a science-based top part called 'The Disintegration of Creation', which is followed by a big theological-based middle part 'The Integrity of Creation' and there is another science-based part -- 'The Re-Integration of Creation'." -- Preface, p. i.
