This book is an interpretation of the moral teaching of Thomas Aquinas’s Summa of Theology. It argues that teaching on the virtues can only be understood by turning to the patterns of divine teaching in the incarnation and the sacraments. It presents this not only as Thomas’s great originality in the Summa but also as his contribution to Christian thought in the present.
