Edward Feser
Philosophy
“An introduction to traditional natural law theory that is both philosophically substantive and accessible to a general audience has been badly needed. Besong’s fine, clear, and welcome book fills the bill.”
Apologetics
“The deep foundations of the Church’s moral teachings are philosophical and theological, but in an age in thrall to scientism it is not only useful but imperative to show that those teachings are also well-supported by social-scientific and other empirical considerations. Father Robert Spitzer’s work is an important and welcome contribution to this enterprise.”
Apologetics
“An important new contribution to understanding the problem of evil, especially given its attention to the Thomistic approach to the subject, which has been influential historically but too often neglected in contemporary discussion.”
Christian Living
“Aquinas was a writer of great spiritual and moral depth, with much useful advice for the ordinary person in the pew. As always, Peter Kreeft is an excellent guide to the work of the Angelic Doctor for those who aren’t sure where to start.”
Theology
“Proofs of God is excellent. Matthew Levering has provided a much-needed resource that will greatly facilitate the rediscovery of neglected Christian thinkers in the history of natural theology.”
Philosophy
“Augros's fine book is philosophically deep yet accessible to the non-specialist, and it acknowledges what we know from modern science while demolishing the error of scientism.”
The Moral Wisdom of the Catholic Church
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The deep foundations of the Church's moral teachings are philosophical and theological, but in an age in thrall to scientism it is not only useful but imperative to show that those teachings are also well-supported by social-scientific and other empirical considerations. Fr. Spitzer's work is an important and welcome contribution to this enterprise.”
Theology
“It would be difficult to overstate the importance of this book. Perhaps more than ever in Church history, Catholics need a clear explanation of the scope and limits of papal magisterial authority and of the difference between the development of doctrine and a corruption of doctrine, which is exactly what Cardinal Müller provides.”
Philosophy
“The close relationship between metaphysics and theology has been recognized from the very beginnings of both Greek philosophy and Christian theology, yet it came to be neglected in the contemporary discussion until recently. Ross Inman's What Is Reality? is an important and lucid contribution to the revival of rigorous, metaphysically informed theology.”
Philosophy
“It takes a special gift to make the classical philosophical tradition accessible to a general readership. Once Mortimer Adler did the job. Equal talents are needed to make serious Catholic apologetics accessible to the same audience, and writers like Ronald Knox once showed the way. In recent decades, Peter Kreeft has ably taken up the mantles of Adler and Knox, and a generation of readers is in his debt, as is the Church.”
