Synopsis

A nowclassic book with insights as fresh and relevant today as they were in the 1960s Harry Blamires, a noted British Christian thinker who started writing through the encouragement of C. S. Lewis, his tutor at Oxford, makes a perceptive diagnosis of some of the weaknesses besetting the church today. He argues that the distinctively Christian intellect is being swept away by secular modes of thought and secular assumptions about reality. Blamires calls for the recovery of the Christian mind and challenges not only secularisms assault upon personal morality and the life of the soul, but also secularisms truncated and perverted view of the meaning of life and the purpose of the social order.
