On Power (De Potentia) is one of Aquinas's ''Disputed Questions''
(a systematic series of discussions of specific theological
topics). It is a text which anyone with a serious interest in
Aquinas's thinking will need to read. There is, however, no English
translation of the De Potentia currently in print. A translation
was published in 1932 under the auspices of the English Dominicans,
but is now only available on a CD of translations of Aquineas
coming from the InteLex Corporation. A new translation in book form
is therefore highly desirable. However, the De Potentia is a very
long work indeed (the 1932 translation fills three volumes), and a
full translation would be a difficult publishing proposition as
well as a challenge to any translator. Recognizing this fact, while
wishing to make a solid English version of the De Potentia
available, Fr. Richard Regan has produced this abridgement, which
passes over some of the full text while retaining what seems most
important when it comes to following the flow of Aquinas's thought.
