    Holmes Rolston, III - CSU history
    (Colorado State University. Libraries, 2007) Hansen, James E., 1938-, author; Colorado State University, publisher
    Rolston has been important in Colorado State University's strategic planning for enhanced student learning. He was the first University Distinguished Professor to be named outside the natural sciences. He has a scholarly reputation comparable to CSU's most successful researchers and is as knowledgeable about science generally as are most such specialists. Rolston's classes have been characterized both by rigorous standards and by a welcoming atmosphere conducive to the thoughtful exchange of ideas.

    Saving creation: nature and faith in the life of Holmes Rolston III (review)
    (Colorado State University. Libraries, 2010-10) Bouma-Prediger, Steven, author; Union Presbyterian Seminary, publisher
    Preston engagingly tells the story of Rolston, from his childhood in the Shenandoah Mountains, to his long and distinguished career as a philosopher at Colorado State University. As the story of a human life, it is an interesting read, but along the way, Preston also adroitly interweaves the story of the rise and development of environmental ethics as an academic discipline. This is an impressive work overall. If you are interested in natural science and Christian theology, this is a book for you. If you are interested in environmental ethics, this is a book for you. Or, if you are just interested in a fascinating human story, well told, this is a book for you.
