Wellington resident Sir Lloyd Geering placed first in the
published book category of the Ashton Wylie Charitable Trust book awards,
presented at Auckland’s Hopetoun Alpha venue on Friday 15 August.
Convenor
of judges, Bob Ross, described From
the Big Bang to God as well researched and presented. “This is a giant of a
book in terms of depth of understanding and execution from one of New Zealand’s
greatest theological thinkers. It presents a clear analysis of the evolution of
the universe, life and humanity.”
This is the second
time 96-year-old Sir Lloyd has taken top honours at the awards — the first was
in 2010 with Such
is Life! A close encounter with Ecclesiastes.
