Summary
Parabola's Winter 1992 issue:
Power and Energy
If power gave us life, and our ongoing existence is dependent on a constant supply of renewed energy, how does such a generation and regeneration take place? In this issue, we question the many manifestations of energy as they appear in science, theology, and in our mortal lives as residents of this planet. How do we recognize both the constructive and destructive power around us; how do we respond? --from the editorial Focus
