Duns Scotus cover

The nature and content of the thought of Duns Scotus (c.1266-1308) remains largely unknown except by the expert. This book provides an accessible account of Scotus's theology, focusing both on what is distinctive in his thought, and on issues where his insights might prove to be of perennial value.

particularly welcome, as it is the first comprehensive treatment of Duns Scotus's theology in English ... This little book is a remarkabel achievement. * Giorgio Pini, Religious Studies, Vol. 37 *
This little book is not easy reading, but is definitely worth the effort. Cross is to be thanked especially because he does not conceal the difficulty of the subject, and infects the reader with the desire to study Scotus's work directly, which is indeed the mark of a successful introduction. * Giorgio Pini, Religious Studies, Vol. 37 *
in a few pages Cross manages to cover many different and difficult issues. This is indeed a great merit ... Cross's analytical skilfulness is always rewarding. * Giorgio Pini, Religious Studies, Vol. 37 *
