ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

awesome, but oft-misused work
~ Written on Oct 12, 2009. 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.

I listened to this book in audio format from Audible, and although I had read it multiple times--the audio format added a whole new rich texture that I enjoyed thoroughly. Lewis' clarity never ceases to amaze me and strengthen my faith. One thing I do want to note though is how Lewis is misused. Often I hear many Christians state (sometimes as an excuse to avoid taking a position on the things that God intends us to study) that they just practice "mere Christianity." Lewis would not have approved. He never intended his work to be used in that manner. I suggest these "mere Christians" re-read this book and take to heart Lewis' admonition that the basic principles he elucidated are not intended to be a stopping place, but rather a juncture that we all pass through in the "hall" on the way to the "room" that will be our home. We are not intended to remain in the milk of "mere Christianity," but to move on to the rich and bountiful meat of deep study and immersion into the joy of knowing God.

A Real "Large Print" Edition
~ Written on Oct 10, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

This is a real "large print" edition and not one of those made large print by enlarging the page. Still, the text could have been formatted better. The content is, of course, classic C. S. Lewis and therefore, to me, great.

Very poor quality printing
~ Written on Sep 28, 2009. out of 1 users found this review helpful.

The rating on this is not for the content but for the quality of the book itself. It is poorly produced on rough paper with uncut edges. If I had seen this on a bookstore shelf, I would not have purchased it. How disappointing--I've never received such a poor-quality book from Amazon. Fortunately, it's a second copy for a class, so I can toss it when it's over and keep my much nicer copy from a different publisher.

Hooray for Large Print
~ Written on Sep 13, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

My reason for purchasing this book was the print size. This company was fairly clear that this was a large print edition. I would like it immensely if all books on sale on line would give an example of the font size or specify clearly what the font size is. Thank you.
The content of the book is an excellent apologetic for Christianity. CS Lewis gives a well reasoned argument for the validity of God and his creating the universe, what Christians believe and how that ought to affect their behavior, as well as other tough concepts to tackle for the skeptic or the believer who needs to know that intellectuals can also be Christians.

I was disappointed in the quality of this book. The edges of the pages are all raggedy. I expected better quality.
