Trade Review

"One can open The Degrees of Knowledge to almost any page and discover there something worth thinking about." —Pastoral Life

* Perspectives on Political Science *

"The Degrees of Knowledge represents one of the most complete articulations of Maritain's incorporation of the thinking of Saint Thomas Aquinas into his work." —The Library Quarterly

* Choice *

“The Degrees of Knowledge remains interesting and valuable because it deals with a theme that is characteristic of, but antedates, much of postmodern thought—i.e., the critique of ‘modern epistemology.’ —Études maritainiennes
