Richard J. Regan's new translation of texts from Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica II-II combines accuracy with an accessibility unmatched by previous presentations of these texts. Regan's Introduction carefully situates Aquinas' analysis of these virtues within the greater ethical system of the Summa Theologica, and each selection is introduced by a thoughtful headnote. A glossary of key terms and a select bibliography are also included.
