Erik J. Wielenberg teaches in the philosophy department at DePauw University. He is author of Value and Virtue in a Godless Universe (2005) published by Cambridge University Press.
'God and the Reach of Reason is an enjoyable and informative read. Lewis scholars will have to decide whether it accurately represents his views and arguments. Wielenberg's presentation of what he takes to be the views and arguments is extremely clear, and his criticisms of them fair and charitable. ... I recommend this book to anyone who wants to read a critical interpretation and assessment of C. S. Lewis's views on religion.' Bruce Russell, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
