"A model work in historical theology and philosophy, simultaneously showing a deep understanding of Thomas's medieval context and a sensitivity to contemporary theological issues. It should be read by anyone interested in Aquinas or Trinitarian doctrine, whether within a medieval or contemporary context." - Speculum "A welcome contribution.very useful for definitively dismissing certain criticisms leveled against St. Thomas's theology, in particular the charge that sees in Aquinas a rationalist attempt to demonstrate the Trinity. The attention paid to methodology and analogy is also key: Smith is to be commended for clearly calling this to mind." - The Thomist "A model work in historical theology and philosophy, simultaneously showing a deep understanding of Thomas's medieval context and a sensitivity to contemporary theological issues.
