This review is from: Explorations in Metaphysics: Being--God--Person (Hardcover)
I am interested in Thomistic metaphysics and having read several books I must say that I found this book extremely helpful. Fr Clarke explains the principles of Thomas' thought in an easy to understand fashion and then convincingly applies them to modern thought. What is especially important in this work is Clarkes development of St Thomas' idea of being as a "substance in relation" which be defintion has a communicative value. This theme is stressed often in the book and is useful in having a response to skeptics of knowledge about the material world. Fr Clarke also gives compelling modern versions of Thomas' 5 Ways of arguing for the existence of God. Well done.
