Man, science and God, 1972.
Redeeming Creation, 1984.
Christ, creation and the environment, 1989.
Professor Morton had a long involvement in the Synods and governance of the Anglican Church and was a strong advocate for Creation Sunday in the Anglican calendar. Professor Morton was also a Lay Canon Emeritus of the Holy Trinity Cathedral in Auckland. He died in Auckland in March this year.
