Who Made God? 3rd Edition by Edgar Andrews 2016 Paperback Book

Includes appendix 'God, Black Holes and Stephen Hawking' The Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, says Who made God? deals with complex subjects 'in a palatable form'. A book by a distinguished scientist about the existence of God, with chapter headings like 'Steam engine to the stars' and 'The tidy pachyderm' has to be different. It is. Dr Andrews shows that the concept of the 'hypothesis of God' towers above the barren landscape of atheism and despair. Even the Secular Daily News conceded that the book is 'head and shoulders above the standard of many so-called scientific Christian apologetic texts'.

From 1955 to 1963 he was a Senior Physicist at the Natural Rubber Producers' Research Association. From 1963 to 1968 he was a Reader in Materials Science.

He has published well over 100 scientific research papers and books, together with two Bible commentaries and various works on science and religion and on theology. His book From Nothing to Nature has been translated into ten languages. Recognition, awards and publications On 28-30 September 1972, Edgar Andrews was one of four speakers invited to address an international audience of over 400 scientists at the Michigan Molecular Institute's Dedication Symposium, along with Nobel Laureates Paul J. Flory and Melvin Calvin, and Professor Donald Lyman. Several of his research articles have appeared in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, Britain's leading scientific journal. In 1977 he was awarded the A. A. Griffith Medal and Prize for contributions to materials science. Edgar Andrews was invited by the Oxford Union Society to take part in the Huxley Memorial Debate on 16 February 1986 where he debated opposite Richard Dawkins on the motion 'That the doctrine of creation is more valid than the theory of evolution'. The proposer of the motion was A. E. Wilder-Smith. The opposers, Richard Dawkins and John Maynard Smith, won the debate by 198 votes to either 115 or 150 (controversy surrounding the voting figures continues to this day).

Translated in ten languages (as at 2012). 1994 - Christ and the Cosmos. 1996 - Free in Christ, the message of Galatians. 2003 - A Glorious High Throne, Hebrews Simply Explained. 2009 - Who made God?
