Review # 1 was written on 2019-03-09 00:00:00 Kylie Langford If someone is fairly new to philosophy and wants a general pretty easy comprehending book... I would highly recommend this one. While I think at some times it was too simplistic but I did enjoy and learn new concepts from the book. Also, it has was not trying to go too deep, and I really can't fault it for something it was not trying to do. Overall, the book was a great introduction. If you are already acquainted with the field of philosophy or wanting a challenge after this book... I would refer you to "Philosophical Foundations for A Christian Worldview" by William Lane Craig and J.P. Moreland. This book will definitely be a great challenge, but after reading a book such as this one... certainly not impossible to read.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-08-28 00:00:00 Joseph Cordone More a list of positions on different issues than a exposition of thomism. But "The love of wisdom" does that better. Also, Geisler doesn't always present the thomist view, for example in the chapter on the relation of the mind and the body, he curiously doesn't talk of the matter/form distinction which is so crucial to Aquinas.
