The aim of the book is to show that the Five Ways of Thomas
Aquinas, i.e. his five arguments to prove the existence of God, are
logically correct arguments by the standards of modern Predicate
Logic. In the first chapter this is done by commenting on the two
preliminary articles preceeding the Five Ways in which Thomas
Aquinas points out that on the one hand the existence of God is not
self-evident to us and on the other hand, that, similar as in some
scientific explanations, the mere existence of a cause for an
effect which is evidently known to us can be proved. In the second
chapter every argument is translated into the symbolic form of
Predicate Logic and its logical validity is shown. Additionally a
detailed and critical discussion of the premises of each argument
is given.
