Gregory Morgan is Parish Priest of St Catherine Labouré Catholic Church, Australia. He is also Adjunct Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame, Australia, and at the Catholic Institute of Sydney.

Gregory Morgan's volume makes a cunning contribution to T&T Clark's Ressourcement Catholic Theology and Culture series. Less about finding ignored golden nuggets in the long tradition of Christian thinking, Morgan takes natural law and plays it off against contemporary thinkers in both Analytic and Continental philosophical theology. The upshot is that he usefully expands the types of questions one can pose about the framework of natural law reflection.
