I chose to read this book for a writing assignment I have in a C.S. Lewis graduate-level course. To be clear, in my opinion, this book is not intended as a non-academic read. It assumes the audience has good familiarity with some amount of philosophy and psychology (nothing wrong with that, it just won't appeal, in my opinion, to those who haven't been exposed to that background). For those of us who can follow along, McGrath's presentation of each topic/chapter is clear and precise and set up, as he explains, to be stand-alone research. I thoroughly enjoyed the ability to find his thesis and points and subheadings in each chapter helped me to stay focused. He takes an objective stance in reviewing Lewisian methodologies, offering both praise and criticism as he unfolds the possible influences on the writer. Overall, I felt it was a good read that proposed some viewpoints that I had not previously considered in my own Lewisian research.
