The Abolition of Man

The Abolition of Man is a 128-page book by C.S. Lewis, in which he argues for the existence and significance of universal values, including honor and courage.

This is a landmark modern work with respect to natural law:

As C. S. Lewis shows in The Abolition of Man, universal moral precepts abound in all societies and cultures throughout all the ages of history and reflect worldwide consensus. Lewis cites sacred writings, philosophical texts, and books of wisdom to illustrate the naturalness, universality, and timelessness of the natural law.[1]
