Book Overview

""Science and Wisdom"" is a collection of philosophical and theological essays written by St. Thomas Aquinas, one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Western philosophy. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the nature of science and the second part exploring the nature of wisdom. In the first part, Aquinas discusses the different types of knowledge and how they relate to science. He argues that science is a type of knowledge that is based on demonstrable evidence and logical reasoning. He also explores the role of sense perception and the limits of human understanding in scientific inquiry. In the second part, Aquinas delves into the nature of wisdom and its relationship to practical knowledge. He argues that wisdom is a type of knowledge that involves not only understanding the principles of things, but also knowing how to apply them in practical situations. He explores the role of virtue and moral character in developing wisdom, and how wisdom can lead to a deeper understanding of God and the world around us. Overall, ""Science and Wisdom"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of knowledge and its relationship to human flourishing. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, theology, or the history of ideas.THIS 40 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: St. Thomas Aquinas Philosophical Texts, by St. Thomas Aquinas .
