The Abolition of Man - by C S Lewis

About the Book

"The Abolition of Man" remains one of Lewis's most prophetic works as social relativism has been uncritically adopted by modern thought--in religion, education, and government--opening the door to the post-modern claim that people are free to create their own reality through a sheer act of the will.
