Reviews

This year I learned a lot from Simon Oliver's Creation: A Guide for the Perplexed, which begins with Genesis and ends with the contemporary environmental crisis - but its heart is an account of Thomas Aquinas's profound theological vision that is almost dazzling in its lucidity. * Times Literary Supplement Books of the Year * This is a very fine book. I suspect it is one that will continue to be read for a good many years. * Church of England Newspaper *
