C. S. Lewis
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. His books were insightful, engaging, and often full of wit. Expressed in brilliant contemporary prose, these models of genuine Christianity contain a lasting relevance that make them perennial bestsellers.
God in the Dock contains forty-eight essays and twelve 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.

“[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…with all the humility and grace of a man who knows how much more remains to be known.”
(New York Times Book Review)“Captivating reading that builds the faith while it fills the mind with greatness.”
(Decision)“For the intellectual pilgrim struggling with the crisis of faith in this world come of age, these chapters possess a unique power for the renewal of evangelical conviction.”

beautifully narrated
Most of Lewis' theological arguments for Christianity are summarised in these essays.
Although the narration is both soothing and inspiring the level of the language is however academic and his arguments are often structured in a complex manner that might confuse the casual reader.
This is not an easy read and in order to seriously understand his logic and his argument this requires an academic style of approach; concentration, critical review, contemplation and then a revisit frequently to test again his ideas.
Arguably Lewis' best theological work.
