The Abolition of Man | C. S. Lewis

Surprising and prophetic, The Abolition of Man is one of C.S. Lewis's most debated books. In the few, yet dense, pages of this work, the celebrated British author defends absolute morality and universal values, such as altruism, charity, and love, and exposes the consequences of the lack of these principles in society.

Criticizing the arguments of relativists, the work, now in a new hardcover and deluxe edition, warns of the dangers of questioning objective moral values, common to all, without which human beings risk losing their humanity. With solid and profound foundations, Lewis shows that the attempt to abolish morality ultimately amounts to abolishing man himself, and invites readers not to surrender to the relativistic trend that permeates contemporary society.
