Book Synopsis
Dealing with the claim that the human mind is not 'bounded' on the outside but actually remains 'open' to the world and to God, this book argues that Thomas Aquinas, as properly interpreted, provides philosophical resources for rehabilitating the mind's relationship to God and thus safeguarding our knowledge of transcendent being and truth.

Trade Review
A lucid, systematic, brilliant defense of the coherence and plausibility of realist philosophical theology and a decisive critique of anti-realism and skepticism. This is an ideal text insofar as it engages contemporary debate while drawing on the history of philosophy, especially the work of Aquinas, to shed light on the philosophy of God, epistemology, and theories of human nature. This should be read by all those with interests in philosophy of religion or the disciplines of theology and religious studies today. - Charles A. Taliaferro, St. Olaf College
