The aim of the book is to meet and combat false conceptions, to co-ordinate true notions, and so to furnish the reader with some general information on old and new scholasticism. The advantage of the book is its two-sided perspective that contains historical investigations about the ancient sources of scholastic philosophy and its decline.
Provides a systematic and very accurate introduction to scholastic philosophy. Part one explores logic and dialectic. Part two deals with metaphysics and ontology. Part three examines cosmology, followed by the fourth part which embraces rational psychology. Part five deals with natural theology.
Contains an investigation of ethics from a scholastic standpoint. The book examines the fundamental theory of action. The author then develops the conceptions of duty and laws as concrete duties. Finally the book examines social ethics as embracing the rights and duties of men in their relations with other men, both as individuals and as groups.
Principles may well be regarded as the main part of philosophy. They are among the major discoveries of philosophy, condensing in themselves much philosophical inquiry and insight. This book includes not only all principles of scholastic philosophy but also exercises to apply the principles to several occasions.
Deals with teleology, truth, predication, knowledge and belief, universals, body and mind, soul, and reason. The book's approach is integrative, scholastic and analytic. Teleology is required for causality, truth and reason. Where the measure is an end, things measure mind in theoretical truth and mind measures things in practical truth.
A handbook on the fundamentals of the science, brief and succinct enough to be practical and yet substantial enough to provide the solid foundation of the traditional from which to approach the ""mysteries"" of modern developments in the field.
Contains a clear, simple, and methodological exposition of the principles and problems of every department of philosophy, and its appeal is not to any particular class, but broadly human and universal. Volume II contains sections on natural theology, logic, ethics and outlines of the history of philosophy.
