One of Aquinas's best known works after the Summa Theologica, Summa
Contra Gentiles is a theological synthesis that explains and
defends the existence and nature of God without invoking the
authority of the Bible. A detailed expository account of and
commentary on this famous work, Davies's book aims to help readers
think about the value of the Summa Contra Gentiles (SCG) for
themselves, relating the contents and teachings found in the SCG to
those of other works and other thinkers both theological and
philosophical. Following a scholarly account of Aquinas's life and
his likely intentions in writing the SCG, the volume works
systematically through all four books of the text. It is,
therefore, a solid and reflective introduction both to the SCG and
to Aquinas more generally. The book is aimed at students of
medieval philosophy and theology, and of Aquinas in particular. It
will interest teachers of medieval philosophy and theology, though
it does not presuppose previous knowledge of Aquinas or of his
works. Davies's book is the longest and most detailed account and
discussion of the SCG available in English in one volume.
