Having said that, Mesle's chapter on "Committed Relativism: An Approach to Ethics and Global Communion" was excellent and certainly worth the price of admission. His chapter on "Process Naturalism" described a paradigm more to my liking and, it seems, more to the author's liking.
I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to know what process theology is all about even though I doubt that it will convince anyone of the ultimate "truthfulness" of this line of thinking. But then, that is apparently what the process is all about: "We recognize that even the most powerfully supported of our beliefs must ultimately be open to reconsideration if new evidence or new ideas suggest better insights into the truth we seek."
