""Nature, Knowledge And God: An Introduction To Thomistic Philosophy"" by Benignus, Brother is a comprehensive guide to the philosophical system of St. Thomas Aquinas, one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Western thought. The book explores Aquinas' ideas on the relationship between nature, knowledge, and God, and provides a clear and accessible introduction to his philosophical system.The book begins by examining Aquinas' understanding of nature and the natural world, including his ideas about the structure of the universe, the nature of causation, and the role of human beings within the natural order. It then explores Aquinas' epistemology, or theory of knowledge, including his ideas about the nature of truth, the relationship between faith and reason, and the limits of human knowledge.Finally, the book delves into Aquinas' theology, exploring his ideas about God's nature and attributes, the relationship between God and the world, and the nature of human salvation. Throughout the book, the author provides clear and concise explanations of Aquinas' ideas, as well as helpful summaries and study questions to aid readers in their understanding of this complex and influential thinker.Overall, ""Nature, Knowledge And God: An Introduction To Thomistic Philosophy"" is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the philosophical system of St. Thomas Aquinas, and the ways in which his ideas continue to shape our understanding of the world and our place within it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
