BIG BANG, SMALL VOICE

The aim of the author was to look at the tension between the scientific account of the origins of the universe and the biblical account.
He does this by first assuming that the scientific account is correct and examining how far the Biblical account can be reconciled with it ‘without weakening the Bible’s authority’. Secondly, he examines ‘how far the scientific account can be reconciled with the biblical account without distorting science’. The author writes with a minimum of technical language and makes the book accessible to those with a particular interest in the topic, but without education at university level.
