This book was originally presented as the 2020-21 Hansen Lectureship Series with contributions by Christina Bieber Lake, Noah J. Toly, and Emily Hunter McGowin. In The Wonders of Creation, biologist Kristen Page explores the beloved fictional landscapes of Narnia and Middle-earth in order to discover what we might learn about real-life landscapes and how to become better stewards of God\'s good creation.

Kristen Page (PhD, Purdue University) is the Ruth Kraft Strohschein Distinguished Chair and professor of biology at Wheaton College. Her work has appeared in scholarly journals, including The Journal of Wildlife Management, Journal of Parasitology, Journal of Wildlife Diseases, and Emerging Infectious Diseases.
