Hauptbeschreibung

As advanced by astronomer-cosmologist Sir Fred Hoyle, astronomy, biology, astrobiology, astrophysics, and cosmology converge agreeably with natural theology. In The Big Bang and God, these interdisciplinary convergences are developed by an astronomer collaborating with a theologian.

Zitat aus einer Besprechung

“The Big Bang and God: an Astro-Theology is a unique and enjoyable exploration of the relationship between science and theology, centered around a central theme: convergence. … The Big Bang and God is a genuinely interesting and approachable work, ably organizing and presenting a broad, interdisciplinary topic for the non-specialist.” (Corbin Boekhaus, RR readingreligion.org, September, 2016)
