Mere Christianity is the most popular of C. S. Lewis's works of nonfiction, with several million copies sold worldwide. Originally heard as radio addresses, it was later published as three separate books: The Case for Christianity, Christian Behavior, and Beyond Personality. This book brings together Lewis's legendary broadcast talks from the war years, in which he set out simply to "explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times."

It is a collection of scintillating brilliance that remains strikingly fresh for the modern reader, confirming C. S. Lewis's reputation as one of the leading Christian writers and thinkers of our age.
