1 comments about C. S. Lewis at the Bbc: Messages of Hope in the Darkness of War.
- As a lifelong and devoted student of Lewis -- and one who has read, re-read, written about, and lectured on Mere Christianity -- I was startled and deeply gratified to learn that the master conceived his touchstone idea, composed the masterpiece that conveys it, and perfected his popular, lean, direct apologetic style under what can only be regarded as the tutelage of the BBC. The late Justin Phillips (who died before completing his book: the manuscript was edited and brought to publication by his daughter Laura Treneer) first provides a genuinely riveting war-time context as only a lifelong BBC-man could. He then captures, with ample narrative skill and astonishingly adroit quotations from correspondence, the "Beeb's" persistence and scalpel-like judgment, as well as CSL's reservations, vexations, achievement, and finally his overwhelming success. Along the way the reader gets a concrete feel for Lewis's travel, work-habits, friendships and homelife which, though not entirely new, are utterly fresh (for example, the contributions of Jill Freud . . . ) And as a bonus we are treated to a chapter on Dorothy L. Sayers and the BBC: The corporation was sorely overmatched! From now on, Richard Baxter + CSL = Mere Christianity must become Baxter + Lewis X the BBC = Mere Christianity and a good deal of the master's pellucid style.

5 comments about Prince William: Prince of Hearts.
- This is a wonderful book for people of all ages. it gives lots of information from the day prince william was born up to the present day.It gives information on the history of the last name mountbatten. It's a wonderful book to read and it's so good you'll never want to put it down.
- This is the probably the best book you'll find on him. It offers some realistic info on the Prince and his life. A defenite 'Excellent' buy.
- This was one of the best books on Prince William I have ever read. It had great pictures and interesting things I never knew before. Teen People went out of there way to get an inside view on the "Prince of Hearts!" I loved this book from start to finish. I would recommend this book to anyone who is a Prince William fanatic of would just like to learn more about him!
- Finally, a book that has good pictures, accurate content, and it's fun to read. It's about time they figure out what they're talking about. I gave this book five stars for two reasons: 1) The text is up-to-date, and well researched. 2) Most "un" authorized books you read usually fill you with lies, this one doesn't. I recomend this book to readers of all ages. Believe me, it's a steal at 7.99.
- Although I found "Teen People"'s book to be well-researched, I was disappointed. It was well-written, had plenty of pictures of the photogenic prince, and had nice little bits of information about the royal family, but I still was upset about the book.
I belong to an organization that is attempting to bring some peace to teenage celebrities' (especially teenage royals') lives. In this age of "stalkerazzi" and constant intrusion, we are trying to keep them from being beseiged. These days, satellite communications and the internet have made it even easier for celebrities to become famous the world-over. Our ardent wish is that you would think over WHY you are buying the book. We have heard that Prince William doesn't like the press, and We believe that he wouldn't want to be exploited the way TEEN PEOPLE has done with this book. Please think over how YOU would feel in his shoes. Finally, please remember that Prince William is a REAL HUMAN BEING who has emotions also. Even though his popularity transcends countries and language barriers, he may feel strongly about this book being published. Please think over your decision carefully.
