Editorial Reviews
Review
'Augustine as a philosopher rather than a theologian ... an unusual and refreshing approach ... McKenna's translation is eminently readable, while remaining close to the original meaning of the text ... This book contrives to restore Augustine to his place among philosophers without denying his status as a theologian.' Philosophical Writings
'This book is well worth reading not only as an impressive display of the intellectual powers of a giant of western thought, but also as a reminder that the middle ages were not the philosophical desert that so many contemporaries seem to think they were.' Practical Philosophy
