	Yehoyaqim mentioned that Lewis is a Christian apologist.  I would
recommend, though, that readers of this newsgroup (i.e. even Jews) read
his "Screwtape Letters" (about $2 in Bantam paperback).  They are letters
to a demon from his older and wiser uncle, telling how best to snare the
human soul.  All in all, it is the best mussar book I have read, since it
improves your behaviour not by chastising, but by pointing out all the little
sins you do that you don't even notice, such as raising family tensions and
the like.  I suspect that if I say more I will only be doing the book further
injustice, so I won't say more, but it will make good yom tov reading.
