Story
Both astonishing and prophetic, The Abolition of Man remains one of C. S. Lewis's most controversial works. Lewis sets out to persuade his audience of the ongoing importance and relevance of universal objective values, such as courage and honor, and the foundational necessity of natural law. He also makes a cogent case that a retreat from these pillars of our educational system, even if in the name of "scientism", would be catastrophic. National Review lists it as number seven on their "100 Best Nonfiction Books of the 20th Century".

At once wildly comic, deadly serious, and strikingly original, C.S. Lewis gives us the correspondence of the worldly-wise old Devil to his nephew, Wormwood, a novice demon in charge of securing the damnation of an ordinary young man.

C. S. Lewis's dazzling allegory about Heaven and Hell - and the chasm fixed between them - is one of his most brilliantly imaginative tales, where we discover that the gates of Hell are locked from the inside. In a dream, the narrator boards a bus on a drizzly afternoon in Hell and embarks on an incredible voyage to Heaven. Anyone in Hell is invited on board, and anyone may remain in Heaven if he or she so chooses. But do we really want to live in Heaven?

The Discarded Image paints a lucid picture of the medieval worldview, providing the historical and cultural background to the literature of the middle ages and renaissance. It describes the 'image' discarded by later years as "the medieval synthesis itself, the whole organization of their theology, science, and history into a single, complex, harmonious mental model of the universe". This, Lewis' last book, has been hailed as "the final memorial to the work of a great scholar and teacher and a wise and noble mind".

Success, true love, and the life you've always wanted. Many of us placed our faith in these things, believing they held the key to happiness, but with a sneaking suspicion they might not deliver. No wonder we feel lost, alone, disenchanted, and resentful. There is only one God who can wholly satisfy our cravings—and now is the perfect time to meet Him again, or for the first time.

David, unlike any Bible character before him, had the charisma to inspire a great nation. Yet in other ways, he was a most ordinary man - often gripped by destructive passion, rocked by personal tragedy, and motivated by political gain. Yet, he is the one character the Bible describes as a "man after God's own heart". In this first volume of the Great Lives series, Charles Swindoll shows how David proved his love for God many times over in an extraordinary life that left an enduring legacy of faith.

Christianity for
This book requires you to leave children's Sunday School behind and have your mind stretched so you can start to experience an intelligent, mature, and insightful way of thinking about what Christianity is really about. As for agnostics and atheists they should spend their time critiquing this book instead of targetting Christian's who think like children. Lewis's use of language and metaphor, make his piercing logic very entertaining. The reader sounds like a bit of an arrogant Englishman but does a good job and as with all the good audiobooks the narrator drifts into the background as the ocean of ideas surges forth. Another under appreciated book by Lewis, the Problem of Pain, is an excellent companion to this. How I wish Richard Dawkin's (of The Selfish Gene) and his followers were arguing with CS Lewis and not the modern, superficial christian evangelicals. All concerned would be so much better off!

A book to think about
As a retired Physicist who taught at a University, and worked for the Government, I am skeptical about miracles. This book does not directly attempt to assert that miracles happened, but rather examines the rational basis for examining the evidence for and against them. C.S. Lewis had philosophical training as part of his background, as well as a deep understanding of logic. He applies the techniques of each to the question of whether miracles can exist, and how to approach the problem. If you read this book without preconceptions, either for or against the central thesis, you come out with a lot of material to think about. If you are skeptical about miracles, this is a good book to read to at least open up your mind. If you already believe in miracles, then this would be worth reading to introduce some skeptical thoughts into your mind to cause you to think, and perhaps reinforce your beliefs after the thought process.

One of the best I've ever read
This book is not intended for those who want easy, light hearted, non-demanding reading or listening. It requires you to engage fully and intelligently, to pause, contemplate and study. But in the end it is one of the finest analysis of the differences between the worldview which embraces nature as the totality of existence, naturalism, and one which perceives and grasps a worldview with a force beyond nature, labeled by Lewis as super-naturalism.
His arguments are compelling as they stem from an intellectual depth of critical reasoning at which most of us can only marvel.

Great book, changed my understanding
This book showed me a perspective and thinking on the actual existence of the supernatural. The book does not assume prior knowledge and builds up from the ground its argument, without being condescending - it's mostly easy to follow, and there is nothing too daunting.
In my life it has opened the door for a more complete understanding of everything - not that I understand everything, but God seems less like an invention of human imagination and more like a reasonable explanation of reality.

A difficult "listen" compared to other CS Books

I think CS Lewis gets so deep sometimes that he is hard to follow. I just had a hard time following this one, not saying it is a bad book, just difficult.

Excellent
As a longtime fan of C.S. Lewis, I found this book both challenging and rewarding. Because I find the subject really absorbing, I wasn't able to use this book for just zoning out. In fact I debated whether I wanted to drive while listening. But it was well, well worth the listen, and I plan to hear it again soon.

Hard to follow
I feel the information and the observations back and forth were enjoyable but it was hard to follow the logic at times. I do not recommend th audio however the book it's self may be more enjoyable when you have time to absorb the arguments.

Deeper and more philosophical than other Lewis
I have worked my way through a number of works by Lewis this month. This work begins with quite abstract philosophical reasoning. That makes it somewhat tough going compared to other works by Lewis. I found the resort to insistent logical reasoning somewhat tedious, to be honest. The use of binaries early on (e.g. you are either "naturalist" or "supernaturalist") rather annoying and unnecessary, but maybe that just suggests the datedness of the work, or my own predispositions. On the whole, it offers a strong argument in favour of the incarnation, resurrection and ascension. As such, it sets up the challenge of miracles as a central issue for accepting or rejecting the Christian faith. Lewis does (as elsewhere) make the alternative perspectives seem most unreasonable, even foolish, in such a way that is hard to deny.

Profound
Loved it! A brilliantly detailed and composed book which goes much deeper and into much broader contexts and ideas of thought with intelligence than many authors of books do in these latter days. Definately one for going through without any disttactions and in a single reception. Be warned...this book is for people who think critically and who have a willingness to think outside the box of what has always been tought and pumped out from mainstream and national curriculum narrative and teachings. This is for those who want to deove deeper and who are seeking a greater and broader context and basis for this subject. It also helps one to be mindfull of ones own physical and non physical state, a natural being and supernatural one at the same time; our relationship to everything, to one other and to nothing as well as our source. This book is definately one in which would benefit the listener by going through it a second time. C.S.Lewis is a master of intelectual thought and explanatory writing which goes beyond mere philosophy but into eternal and spiritual realms but done in a way in which we can ponder on and apply it to our own thought and reasoning as a human being.
