In Cuttlefish, Clones and Cluster Bombs Michael Northcott presents us with a book comprising a collection of his own sermons. A “must-read” it deserves a much wider audience than any he had when speaking from a pulpit. Deeply disturbing, they are far more than a series of rants by an “intellectual lefty”, as their author describes himself. He unerringly puts his finger on some of the many issues that trouble those who are concerned about the world they live in, peace and justice. Fossil fuels, the arms trade, man-made climate change, the downside of globalisation, and the abuse of developing countries by the western world are but five of the difficult areas on which he focuses. Northcott’s point of view is uncompromisingly that of a committed Christian, not that of the politician. He stands shoulder to shoulder with the poor and the weak without a trace of sentimentality. Cuttlefish, Clones and Cluster Bombs deserves to be read and to have its message heeded.
