Thomas Aquinas: Selected Writings (Penguin Classics)

Great book. Very informative. Perfect font for reading.

Seriously , this is for a greater purpose than a casual read during a winters day . If you are at University then it is a must read to a fullness in Western Civilization, or a leadership position in a Church , Protestant or Catholic . If you're a avid reader of history it is useful , but don't hate it, as it is a giant of a man's opinion of God .

This is a great selection, but not a complete works. I don't know if there is a complete works, but I was a tad frustrated that one subject I was interested in was not "selected". That doesn't reflect poorly on this work though this is a great work and great addition to any philosophy library.

This might be the best purchase I've made on here. I'm an undergrad student getting a Biblical Studies degree with a Philosophy minor and it has helped me out tremendously! From the doctrine of the Trinity to the ontological reasonings for the existence of God, this book is a fantastic way to dive deeper into theological studies in philosophy.

This was a required reading for my class as he picked certain passages for us, such as "On Being and Esscence," "Proof of God's Existence," "On Law and Natural Law," and "The Virtues." The book inspired critical thinking and serious thought -processing for me to grasp everything going on.

product is good

many of the shorter works of st. thomas aquinas are difficult to get and paper takes up precious space. i loved having works that i wanted to read but could not find or store. sometimes when i found the work it was too expensive. the kindle edition is the perfect fit for me.

I bought this book as a gift for my son. He is a scholar and enjoys reading about theological matters. He highly recommends the book to others.

Awesome book, sadly as I am not versed in really old school philosophy it is a difficult read as you won’t be able to understand many of the terms unless you are a pretty hardcore philosophy student. Even so I will labour on and it is no fault of the text which is excellent.

very good

This collection offers a solid picture of medieval theology and Aristotelian philosophy. It's a great way to get a feel for his ideas if you're new to his work. However, if you're already a 'seasoned' reader of his writings, you might find it covers familiar ground, focusing heavily on his major works, which I was already familiar with. Still, it's a decent compilation for what it is.

The three books checked combine to give a comprehensive view of the works of St Thomas Aquinas. They are a valuable collection

I bought this book for my husband who's a member of the Baha'i Faith. He was impressed with the book and humbled by the fact that Aquinas -- centuries ago -- had so much wisdom and clarity of vision. This book is now a subject of animated discussion between my husband and his close friend, a former Jesuit and member of the Christian/Catholic church.
