Why another book about C. S. Lewis? The answer is simple: C.S. Lewis: A Critical Essay is the most concise and vivid introduction to the life and writings of the greatest apologist of the twentieth century. First published over forty years ago, and now updated to include an entirely new essay by the author, Kreeft’s books wisely allows Lewis to speak for himself through a series of judiciously chosen quotations. C. S. Lewis: A Critical Essay is a memorable tribute from one of today’s foremost Christian apologists —whose own writings have often been compared to those of Lewis—to his acknowledged master.

Peter Kreeft is a professor of philosophy at Boston College and at the King’s College in New York City. He is a regular contributor to several Christian publications, is in wide demand as a speaker at conferences, and is the author of over fifty-five books, including Christianity for Modern Pagans, The Philosophy of Jesus, and Handbook of Christian Apologetics.
