In his Treatise on the Virtues, Aquinas discusses the character and
function of habit; the essence, subject, cause, and meaning of
virtue; and the separate intellectual, moral, cardinal, and
theological virtues. His work constitutes one of the most thorough
and incisive accounts of virtue in the history of Christian
philosophy. John Oesterle's accurate and elegant translation makes
this enduring work readily accessible to the modern reader.
Monday Night Class began as an experimental college course taught
by Stephen Gaskin, and by 1970 had grown into a popular attraction
with 2,000 people attending weekly. Here Stephen explores the laws
that govern the spiritual plane, drawing on sources as varied as
the Bible, Zen Buddhism, and the daily newspaper, interpreting the
visions of the 60s generation with humor and affection. This new
edition is a collection of the original transcripts from these
historic meetings, with new commentary by Stephen from today's
perspective.
