A small collection of addresses/essays. This particular edition (ISBN 0-06-065320-5) contains the following.

The Weight Of Glory - about our desire, particularly our desire for glory, what it means and how all this relates to ourselves and our interactions with others.

Learning In War-Time - on our duties as Christians regardless of the situation.

Why I Am Not Pacifist - on the question of whether one should serve in wars at the command of the society one is part of.

Transposition - Lewis begins with our human experiences on how sensations and emotions interface, before moving onto the relationship between the spiritual, and the physical and temporal world. An interesting essay on the spiritual reality which we live in.

Is Theology Poetry? - on the question of whether Christian Theology is simply poetry, a well written myth which captures and transfixes the mind by its aesthetic appeal, or a reality.

The Inner Ring - on the almost unshakable desire to be included in some sort of clique or the "Inner Ring". A most edifying address.

Membership - on the modern ideas of collectivism and individualism and what it means to be a true member of the Church, the mystical Body of Christ.

On Forgiveness - an interesting essay on how we replace forgiveness with 'excusing' and what true forgiveness is.

A Slip Of The Tongue - another intriguing essay on how we habitually withhold particular parts of lives and/or ourselves from God whose demand is unmistakably absolute.
