[A] provocative and engaging new study . . . " —The Review of Metaphysics"[Hibbs] make[s] a signal contribution to the discussion of Thomas's intellectual project by emphasizing the 'narrative' at least as much as the 'dialectic' and by writing with a view to chastising those who would neglect the former in preference for the latter." —Religious Studies Review"One does not find in this book still another effort to explain what Aquinas was really about in the SCG; instead [Hibbs] interprets the text in a way that remarkably imitates Aquinas's own cogitatio fidei, his thinking about the truth of Catholic faith. The result is so brilliantly accomplished that one is led to ponder whether Hibbs works here as a philosopher or as a theologian. Whatever the answer, he renders a tremendous service to the world of Roman Catholic theology." —Theological Studies"Thomas Hibbs has produced the definitive book on Summa Contra Gentiles, a book destined to become a permanent part of Thomistic studies." —International Studies in Philosophy
