Trade Review

“This is a major milestone in translation and a welcome addition to the opus of the great saint available in translation. Highly recommended.” —The Reader’s Review


“Those who have the required time and tenacity will be richly rewarded by [Aquinas’s] treatment of a perennial problem.” —Books and Culture


“Great care has been lavished on the text, and the result is a clear and readable rendering. . . . a valuable addition to the growing list of Thomas’s works available in English.” —Religious Studies Review


". . . a mature and major work [that] deals with both philosophical and theological aspects of the nature of evil, its causes and kinds, the main classes of sin, freedom, original sin, and devils. . . ." —Choice


“Plumbing the theological problem of evil—a classic intellectual and emotional struggle in religion—now seems a newly urgent task, a fact reflected in... a new translation of Aquinas’s On Evil by John and Jean Oesterle (Notre Dame).” —Publishers Weekly
