The Restoration of Man: C.S. Lewis and the Continuing Case

The Restoration of Man: C.S. Lewis and the Continuing Case Against Scientism

C. S. Lewis is best known for his Narnia tales and Christian apologetics, works that have sold more than 100 million copies. But Lewis was also a trained philosopher and a professor at Cambridge and Oxford. An intellectual giant, he fiercely and extensively critiqued the fashionable dogma known as scientismâ€”the idea that science is the only path to knowledge, and matter the fundamental reality. Michael Aeschlimanâ€™s The Restoration of Man ably surveys Lewisâ€™s eloquent case against this dogma, and situates him among the many other notable thinkers who have entered the fray over this crucial issue. Aeschliman shows why Lewisâ€™s case for the human person as more than matterâ€”as a creature with inherent rationality and worthâ€”is a precious resource for restoring and preserving our cultureâ€™s sanity, wisdom, and moral order. This newly revised and expanded edition of Aeschlimanâ€™s celebrated study includes forewords by three distinguished writersâ€”James Le Fanu, George Gilder, and Malcolm Muggeridge.
