Beskrivning
Thomas Aquinas's classic Treatise on the One God is one of the greatest works ever written in the history of philosophy and theology. During the first half of the twentieth century, philosophy of religion was widely viewed as dead, not even a domain of serious questions but only of 'pseudo-questions.' Surprisingly, not only did the supposed corpse rise from the dead, but religion once again became one of the most active fields of philosophical investigation. The time could not be more fitting for a reinvestigation of Treatise on the One God, which opens the massive Summa theologiae. In this unparalleled exploration of the Treatise's penetrating arguments J. Budziszewski explores and illuminates the text with a luminous line-by-line commentary. Supplemented with thematic discussions, this book discusses not only the Treatise itself, but also its immediate relevance to contemporary thought and issues of the modern world. This work fittingly closes the author's series of commentaries on the Summa Theologiae.

J. Budziszewski is a professor in the Departments of Government and Philosophy at the University of Texas, Austin. Besides Thomas Aquinas, Budziszewski's greatest interest is the natural law, in which he is best known for his work on moral self-deception. He has also written widely on virtue, happiness and ultimate purpose, family and sexuality, religion and public life, toleration and liberty, and the unraveling of our common culture.

Recensioner i media

'If there existed commentaries on all of Aquinas's works that were as intelligent, as clear, as satisfying, and as user-friendly as this one, they would totally 'corner the market' and spark a massive Thomistic revival.  Budziszewski has succeeded in carving out a distinctive niche that is neither 'popular' in the sense of patronizing nor 'scholarly' in the sense of onerous. Like Aquinas himself, he has the rare ability to unite profundity with clarity.' Peter Kreeft, Professor of Philosophy, Boston College
