The Summa Theologiae ranks among the greatest documents of the Christian
Church, and is a landmark of medieval western thought. It provides the
framework for Catholic studies in systematic theology and for a
classical Christian philosophy, and is regularly consulted by scholars
of all faiths and none, across a range of academic disciplines. This
paperback reissue of the classic Latin/English edition first published
by the English Dominicans in the 1960s and 1970s, in the wake of the
Second Vatican Council, has been undertaken in response to regular
requests from readers and librarians around the world for the entire
series of 61 volumes to be made available again. The original text is
unchanged, except for the correction of a small number of typographical
errors.
