Many of these essays I have read in other of his compilations, some of which I remembered vaguely, needing review. One - "The Right to Happiness" - has stayed with me since I first read it as a young woman, decades ago, in God in the Dock. It was the last in this series.
The first is a treatise on whether or not a Christian can go to war, or if he should be a pacifist. It wrestles with the sources of our moral decision making, and I remembered reading it in God in the Dock, but had forgotten much of it. CS Lewis is so brilliant, and I am not, so I listened to it over and over. Why? Not for the specific issue of pacifism, but because the moral decision-making questions and factors are still timely today, only in the arena of Covid. As I read, I could hear the voices on both sides, and the machinations of "fact", fear, "truth", gut-level feelings, and biased passions.
This book, full of timeless truth, is still helpful because "There's nothing new under the sun."
