Summa Theologica FROM THE PUBLISHER
In recent years, increased interest in medieval studies and Catholic theology have revealed St. Thomas as more than just quasi-official theologian to the Roman Catholic church, confirming his stature as one of the greatest thinkers the West has ever known. In his masterwork, the Summa, he synthesises Aristotelian concepts on the nature of the living world and man, with Biblical teaching on God's loving purpose in creating them.
