“The great asset of this collection . . . is that far from treating these topics in isolation from each other, it demonstrates their profound integration in Thomas’s theology. . . . This form of attention to specific theological loci, along with the breadth of topics covered, offers the introductory student a sense of The Theology of Thomas Aquinas beyond what most edited volumes achieve. The volume should prove useful to beginning students and seasoned scholars alike while reflecting and promoting recent trends in Thomistic research." —Religious Studies Review
