Beyond Personality by C S Lewis.

Published by Geoffrey Bles in 1944. First edition, first impression. Sized 19 x 13cm. Pp. 64. In original, unclipped dust wrapper.

The transcripts of Lewis' BBC radio talks made between 1941 and 1944 originally appeared in print in three separate volumes: The Case for Christianity (Broadcast Talks in the UK) (1942), Christian Behaviour (1943), and Beyond Personality (1944). They would later be compiled into one volume: Mere Christianity which is now considered one of the most influential books amongst evangelicals.
