Publisher's Synopsis

A Classic of Christian Apologetics

Chesterton presents a defense of traditional Christian beliefs in the face of modern skepticism and doubt. Through witty prose and imaginative metaphors, Chesterton argues that orthodoxy-the core doctrines of Christianity-is not only rational but also profoundly liberating. He tackles various philosophical and theological concepts, such as the existence of God, the problem of evil, and the nature of humanity, with a unique blend of logic and imagination.


First published in 1908, this edition is derived from the original book. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
