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.
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.
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.
