Justice and Charity: An Introduction to Aquinas's Moral, Economic, and Political Thought Paperback - 2020
by Michael P. Krom
From the rear cover
"A rich and readable Thomistic introduction to Catholic social teaching"
"Krom has written an introduction to Thomas Aquinas's moral, economic, and political thought that is dazzling in its clarity and succinctness of exposition. In it, we witness a master teacher at work, always eager to render all intellectual content intelligible to the beginner. I recommend this book for both teacher and student alike."
--Fr. Kevin E. O'Reilly, OP, Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas, the Angelicum, Rome
"Krom offers a thorough and careful exposition of the Thomistic framework that underpins Catholic social teaching. Anyone seeking to better understand the Catholic faith or its philosophical and theological foundations will profit greatly from reading this book."
--Angela Knobel, Catholic University of America
"This is an excellent book for use in a college course on Aquinas's moral and political thought or on Catholic social teaching. The final chapter on Aquinas's theory today gives concrete practice in applying his thinking to contemporary problems."
--Ann Hartle, Emory University (emerita)
"A rich and readable Thomistic introduction to Catholic social teaching. From alternating philosophical and theological angles, Krom lays out the central components of truly good moral, economic, and political life. In an instructive final chapter, Krom deftly brings St. Thomas's principles to bear upon the complexities of the contemporary world. Highly recommended!"
--Matthew Levering, Mundelein Seminary
"Overcoming the usual divisions that characterize the different schools of Thomism, Krom approaches the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas with fresh and lively eyes. Justice and Charity is an excellent example of how to address contemporary social and political issues with the help of ancient wisdom. I recommend it to beginning and experienced scholars alike."
--Michael P. Foley, Honors College, Baylor University
"Our understanding of economics and politics must be informed by a love of wisdom and a knowledge of God; if it isn't, we end up with tyranny and its deadly consequences. Since this is so, Krom's book is a true gift for all those seeking a world governed by justice and charity."
--Joseph Pearce, author of Small Is Still Beautiful: Economics as if Families Mattered
