Product Description "Readers interested in the origin and development of Wojtyła's early thought on marriage, sexuality and the family, or on Aquinas's metaphysical, moral and teleological suppositions, or on his teaching on marriage, will find rich resources, clear prose and illuminating exegesis, calmly and accessibly presented. The treatment of Aquinas's theology of marriage is the best I have read." – Theology " Fr. Petri's work will undoubtedly play a crucial role in the philosophical and theological assimilation of St. John Paul II's thought and magisterial teaching." - Thomistica.net Review "The treatment of Aquinas's theology of marriage is the best I have read. & review is critical"―Adrian Thatcher, University of Exeter, Theology "Petri's book is to be highly recommended for providing insight into the Thomistic base of John Paul II's theology of the body. It is clearly written and well organized and helps to explain why the Church continues to adhere to the truths expressed in Humanae Vitae."―Shivanandan, Mary, The National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly About the Author Thomas Petri, OP, is vice president and Academic Dean, Dominican House of Studies
