Latest review of “Who made God?” August 24, 2010
The Apologetics 315 website has just published an in-depth review of Who made God? which you can find as the last entry under “book/reviews and interviews”. The closing words of the review are as follows:
“Andrews presents a book that is, in this reviewer’s opinion, a perfect gift to just about anyone – from layman to expert. Andrews adds wit and humor that is fresh and unique. The content is engaging, exploring the sciences from string theory and the multiverse to time, conscience, moral law, the origin of life, and miracles. Who Made God? Searching for a Theory of Everything
WMG advertised in UK national press August 9, 2010
One day during the week of 16-20 August, Who made God?” will be advertised for the first time in the UK national press (The Daily Telegraph). The purpose is, of course, to extend readership beyond the Christian community to the person-in-the-street who’s thinking has been saturated with the evolutionary atheism propagated by the mass media, especially BBC TV and certain national newspapers. Many Christians have been encouraged by the book and many have also passed or recommended it to non-Christian friends, but it was written chiefly for the uncommitted and unchurched masses who are unlikely to visit churches or Christian bookshops and remain unaware of the existence of the many books which effectively refute the “new atheism” of Richard Dawkins and others.
“Who made God?” gets third reprint in 10 months July 9, 2010
Who made God? has had its third reprint (fourth printing) even though it is less than 10 months since it first went on sale. Each printing has been 5000 copies, so once the new reprint is delivered there will be 20,000 hardback copies in print. The book has sold particularly well in Britain, Australia and USA and is beginning to turn up on websites in Germany, New Zealand and Japan. It is also beginning to percolate into general bookshops which would not normally stock Christian books. The book has been reviewed over 50 times in journals and on-line, the great majority of reviews being favorable. Interestingly, none of the handful of reviews by atheists has even attempted to engage with the arguments advanced in the book in support of biblical theism.

I don’t know if I’ve ever had more fun reading a book so steeped in scientific terminology… in fact, I’m sure I haven’t!

WMG a major resource March 18, 2010
Joe Fleener (MDiv) lectures in Old Testament, Church History, Christian Worldview, Apologetics, and Christian Ethics at The Shepherd’s Bible College. He cites “Who made God?” as his chief resource in preparing an address given on March 16th at the University of Aukland, New Zealand, on the subject Christianity On Trial. adding;
I will affirm what I said a couple of months ago. This book is without question one of the best books I have read on this subject ever, and one of the most important books published in 2009/10. See http://emethaletheia.blogspot.com/

Railway poster campaign January 26, 2010
During February 2010 we shall be promoting “Who made God?” to the general public by displaying large posters on the platforms of major railway stations throughout UK. The poster carries an image of the cover and comments from Fay Weldon (“Thoughtful, readable, witty, wise …”), the Archbishop of York (“written in a very lively style …”) and Principal Robert Strivens (“Richard Dawkins has more than met his match”).
General bookstore gets interested December 22, 2009
Books like “Who made God?” are not usually stocked by general or secular bookstores in UK but we have found that a little pressure can change this situation. We began by giving a copy of the book to the owner of our local bookshop and followed it up a week or two later by offering to pay for a display to be mounted. The owner liked the book so much that he refused any payment and ordered 15 copies for what he intended as a short display. However, the book sold so well that he ordered another 20 copies and then yet another 15 … all in the space of about 3 weeks. We did help by providing a small “point-of-sale” poster (copies available … please make requests on the “comments” page).
One result of this was that a complete stranger riding an escalator with me said “I’ve seen you somewhere before”. When I introduced myself he said, “I’m reading your book … it’s really entertaining and I’m going to share it with my friends!”
See our new ‘reviews and interviews’ page December 5, 2009
We have added a new sub-page to the Book page entitled ‘reviews and interviews’ where you will find a review by Tim Challies (partial, with a link to the full review), another by an anonymous reviewer that was posted on www.amazon.com, and a link to the Moody Radio interview mentioned previously in the blog. The idea is to post new reviews and interviews as they appear, so this page will build up in content.
