Essential Christian doctrine in everyday language

Revisado: 08-25-22

C S Lewis has done an incredible job of explaining basic doctrine in an easy to understand and follow way for practical living faith. I read this a long time ago but hearing it read was well worth the time. The performance reflects the fact that the chapters were originally written to be performed on radio broadcasts. Very effective. If you are new to faith or have difficulty making sense of why we follow Jesus this would be very helpful. Highly recommend

better than ever

Revisado: 02-05-20

great story and characters this time familiarity does not breed contempt but appreciation for continuity. The prose is almost poetry now. perhaps because i recently retired i can empathize with some of the issues raised

an insightful and painstakingly honest narration of a pivotal character in the rise of english dominance in europe. the narrator made me think it was winston himself telling the story

Great up on Heinlein and duck. This is in the same league as their bests
Inventive story structure adds to the flow and enables belivable surprise twists
Characters are fully developed no disposable villains or sidekicks. You feel the authors putting g his own pain of real loss into his writing. Not ur typical mil-sf much more than that a journey of self discovery

very abridged but repetitive too

Revisado: 02-01-12

What did you like best about Nicholas and Alexandra? What did you like least?

not history, but not bio , couldn't make their mind and unsatisfying for either especially considering how long it took to tell. does the author think restating his opinions again and again makes them facts?

unapologetic review of the dominance of west

Revisado: 12-14-11

Would you listen to Civilization again? Why?

lots of intriguing detail of rarely referenced non western sources which bear further investigation

What other book might you compare Civilization to and why?

Gold God and Guns - WRM

Which character – as performed by Niall Ferguson – was your favorite?

Simon Bolivar - hard to believe the stereotype I was taught in school was such anti democratic figure in reality - lots of good quotes

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I was touched by the in depth look at slavery in North and South America with the different forms this evil took in different cultures

Any additional comments?

looking forward to the second half
