by: Francis SelmanA Basic Introduction to the Thought of Saint Thomas AquinasA brief, engaging, and readable summary of the influential thought of St. Thomas Aquinas.In this clear, thoughtful and immensely readable book, Francis Selman offers summaries on some of the most complex topics in the writing of St. Thomas Aquinas and deftly draws on the work of contemporary scholars while situating Aquinas in relation to the thinkers and schools of thought he was both confronting and drawing upon. The result provides an overview that places the thought of Aquinas both in his time and in our own.Sprinkled amid the basic topics of St. Thomas's thought -knowledge of God, the virtues, good and evil, and the soul - are overlooked aspects of his philosophy such as angels, the emotions, the Old Law, and the resurrection. In Aquinas 101, Rev. Francis Selman highlights both the standard and neglected themes from one of the Catholic Church's greatest minds.Trade Paperback. 219 pags fully indexed.ISBN: 9780870612435 Show more
