Readers will be grateful for this excellent comprehensive survey of Aquinastheology,wrote Rev. Ulrich Horst, O.P., ofLudwigMaximilianUniversity.It is a compendium in the best sense of the word, both introduction for beginners and a reliable source of information for advanced scholars. Even experts in Thomist thought will highly appreciate the great number of original and stimulating essays which provide new views and interpretations of seemingly well-known texts."
