"This is an excellent overview of the major issues of philosophy, viewed through a Catholic lens. It is by necessity superficial in many areas because the book tackles the ambitious project of summarizing pretty much every major issue that has been debated in philosophy from the time of the ancient Greeks to the present day. The book inspires me to seek out more in-depth material on many of the issues raised." — Mar 16, 2025 02:26PM

“For my own part, I tend to find the doctrinal books often more helpful in devotion than the devotional books, and I rather suspect that the same experience may await others. I believe that many who find that ‘nothing happens’ when they sit down, or kneel down, to a book of devotion, would find that the heart sings unbidden while they are working their way through a tough bit of theology with a pipe in their teeth and a pencil in their hand.”
