Addresses the paradox of reason/revelation and philosophy/theology, reflecting on whether philosophy has ever been free of beliefs, how Greek philosophers prepared the way for Christian philosophy, and how thinkers such as Aquinas, Bonaventure, and Maritain practiced Christian philosophy. Closes with a chapter on Aquinas' positions as an antidote to trends such as Sartre's existentialism and Derrida's deconstructionism. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
