        Just what would Lewis have thought about being the subject of a book in the -For Dummies - series? Perhaps he would have been pleased to discover that, despite its title, this volume contains a wealth of information about his life and work in clear prose. Throughout, Wagner (Christianity For Dummies) also provides numerous boxes that contain fun and informative facts. The book will be especially helpful to those interested in Lewis's more theological works, e.g., The Problem of Pain or The Abolition of Man. A wonderful resource for public library collections.
