Summary

God and Stephen Hawking 2ND EDITION by John C Lennox offers a thoughtful critique of Stephen Hawking's assertion that the laws of physics, rather than a divine creator, brought the universe into being. Lennox, an Oxford mathematician and apologist, carefully examines Hawking's arguments using accessible language, scientific insights, and philosophical reasoning to challenge the claim that God has been banished by science. The book invites readers to reconsider the probability of a Creator's existence in light of contemporary scientific debate.

Description

It is a grandiose claim to have banished God. With such a lot at stake we surely need to ask Hawking to produce evidence to establish his claim. Do his arguments really stand up to close scrutiny? I think we have a right to know.

The Grand Design and Brief Answers to Big Questions by eminent scientist the late Stephen Hawking were blockbusting contributions to the science religion debate. They claimed it was the laws of physics themselves which brought the universe into being, rather than any God. In this forthright response, John Lennox, Oxford University mathematician and internationally-known apologist, takes a closer look at Hawking's logic and questions his conclusions.

In lively, layman's terms, Lennox guides us through the key points in Hawking's arguments — with clear explanations of the latest scientific and philosophical methods and theories — and demonstrates that far from disproving a Creator God, they make his existence seem all the more probable.
