God in the Dock

Essays on Theology and Ethics

De: C. S. Lewis

Narrado por: Ralph Cosham

C. S. Lewis was a profound thinker with the rare ability to communicate the philosophical and theological rationale of Christianity in simple yet amazingly effective ways. God in the Dock contains 48 essays and 12 letters written by Lewis between 1940 and 1963 for a wide variety of publications. Ranging from popular newspaper pieces to learned defenses of the faith, these essays cover topics as varied as the logic of theism, good and evil, miracles, vivisection, the role of women in church polity, and ethics and politics. Many of these writings represent Lewis' first ventures into themes he would later treat in full-length books.©1970 C.S. Lewis Pte Ltd. (P)2007 Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[Both Lewis'] searching mind and [his] poetic spirit are readily evident....Here the reader finds the tough-minded polemicist relishing the debate; here, too, the kindly teacher explaining the cosmic extraction by means of clarifying analogies." ( New York Times Book Review)

Always amazed

I really enjoyed listening to the options of Lewis. I found it interesting that we still have the same descussions today as they had back then. I love the way Lewis talks to his audience, along with his bluntness.

Must have

It’s not often that I have an audiobook that I am compelled to purchase it in every form (kindle and paperback) but this book is a must have in every form

Fantastic Listen

I’ve read just about everything from Lewis, and this stands as one of the greatest complications of his apologetic works. Highly recommend!

Excellent

The last hours worth of letters recorded here are clairvoyant concerning modern American society and progressive thought

Excellent for the C.S. Lewis fan

Would you listen to God in the Dock again? Why?

Yes, because C.S. Lewis is a great thinker and helps to elucidate different topics so well.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. I never do that.

Any additional comments?

I wouldn't choose this as my first C.S. Lewis book, go to Mere Christianity, Chronicles of Narnia, Screwtape Letters and Weight of Glory first. This one is more for the fan who has read most of the other items and wants to continue to read more. Which describes me.
