Reviews

This basic introduction to Aquinas's theological thought is a great achievement: it succeeds in combining well-informed presentations of selected topics from the Summa theologiae with acute discussions of contemporary critiques and debates around his theology. - Rudi te Velde, Tilburg University, Netherlands. An accessible introduction to the theology of Thomas Aquinas, Harkins balances historical contextualization of Aquinas' thought and engagement with modern interpretations and misinterpretations, using illustrative analogies and humour to explain difficult theological concepts in an engaging style. -Aaron M. Canty, Saint Xavier University, USA.
