✦ Synopsis
Acclaimed as the best book ever written on St. Thomas, this outstanding profile introduces one of Christianity's most important and influential thinkers. G.K. Chesterton chronicles the saint's life, focusing on the man and the events that shaped him, rather than on theology. In a concise, witty, and eminently readable narrative, he illustrates the relevance of St. Thomas' achievements to modern readers. Born into an aristocratic family, Thomas rejected a life of privilege to join a new order of preaching and teaching monks, the Dominicans. Chesterton compares Thomas' views to those of another.;Title Page; Bibliographical Note; Copyright Page; Dedication; Table of Contents; INTRODUCTORY NOTE; CHAPTER I -- ON TWO FRIARS; CHAPTER II -- THE RUNAWAY ABBOT; CHAPTER III -- THE ARISTOTELIAN REVOLUTION; CHAPTER IV -- A MEDITATION ON THE MANICHEES; CHAPTER V -- THE REAL LIFE OF ST.
