I can't say I agree with everything in this book. In fact I think certain of it assumptions are profoundly flawed. But it is worthwhile to expose yourself to the workings of such a brilliant mind. And there is much to learn in this book.

I'm an adult convert to Catholicism and wanted to study theology. This is some heavy reading and I'm not anywhere near the end. But I'm glad this was on Kindle for free. Great for those who seek a deeper understanding of their faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars Masterpiece
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2018

Summa Theologica is evidence that Thomas Aquinas was a revolutionary mind. He approaches the ultimate philosophical questions by blending the tradition of Plato, Aristotle, the Sophists and other classical Greek philosophers with Christian principles. His work is based not only on a firm grasp of the scriptures but also on a refined sensitivity and natural insight into human nature, which creates an apotheosis of theological epistemology. Thomas Aquinas takes us by the hand to explore the senses, reason, basic human mental processes, good, evil and the relationship of man with God. This is a philosophy masterpiece relevant to those interested in theology, the history of philosophy and human behavior.

this is a book about catholic theology. I find the material somewhat dense, but that is because I have never taken a class in theology. It is very interesting, and I have made this book part of my bible study resource material.

You must read it from front to back, and it has over one thousand pages. There is no active table of contents or the ability to tab over to the next chapter. It is useless. Do not waste your time with it. Pay ninety-nine cents to get a version that works with Kindle.

3.0 out of 5 stars Best Taken In Small Doses
Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2021

I read it cover to cover. Not my recommended approach. Aquinas is brilliant, the reading is dense, and some of the theological arguments are an angels and pins dance-off. As a Catholic and a voracious reader, I was exposed to Aquinas in college and wanted to revisit. A lot here, and a good teacher will help guide you. As a book, it’s a good value here on Amazon.

2.0 out of 5 stars Despite this classical authors great name, nowadays most of this is waffle
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 1, 2013
Verified Purchase
The argumentation, in style and depth, lacks methodical skepticism and lacks... reality. Arguments and counter-arguments are presented one after another with no recourse to evidence or facts, and the text becomes tedious and aggravating much more than it becomes interesting. Aquinas may well have been highly influential, but, he suffers from the same problems as many other ancient philosophers and theologians, and it is about time we consider such texts to have worth only in teaching us how NOT to engage in the search for truth.
