Rowling's worldview and spirituality, the themes and literary features of her books, and how she upholds the moral virtues and values championed by most classic children's authors, such as C. S. Lewis, while including values of inclusiveness and dealing with loss that are special to her and which speak clearly to the issues that concern us nowadays. There have been dozens of books on the Potter phenomenon, but 'The Unauthorised Harry Potter Companion' is the first to take the works seriously as modern classics and place them not only in the tradition of children's literature but in the broader tradition of western literature and the place of magic in our world view. Very Good. ISBN: 9780750944700
