A collection of radio talks by C. S. Lewis, this gives basic answers slowly. Devotional.

Entertaining as always, though his piece on women as priests is rather poorly argued.

Before I discovered Adrian Plass and Philip Yancey, CS Lewis was unquestionably my favourite Christian author. He still ranks as one of my top three. For apologetics and clear explanations of doctrine, I don't think he has any equal.
However this particular book isn't one of his best. To be fair, it
There were some gems in the early sections, but I was less impressed with some of the later chapters which displayed distinct upper-middle-class 1940s bias.
All in all, not a good introduction to CS Lewis, but a nice addition for a collector of his works.

was never intended as a book. It's a collection of Lewis's articles and talks on various topics, which don't really hold together. The chapters are short, and I enjoy his intellectual but clear style of writing.There were some gems in the early sections, but I was less impressed with some of the later chapters which displayed distinct upper-middle-class 1940s bias.
