1. St. Thomas And Philosophy
A concise exposition of Aquinas’s philosophy that situates it within the Aristotelian tradition, clarifies the relation and distinction between philosophy and theology, and presents key doctrines such as act and potency, essence and existence, the analogy of being, knowledge and truth, and natural law. It argues for the autonomy and enduring relevance of Thomistic realism, showing how its metaphysical and ethical insights illuminate persistent problems in modern thought.
