The Life and Prayers of Saint Thomas Aquinasgives us an understandable and concise overview of his works and teachings on how philosophy and theology coexist together.  St Thomas Aquinas did not believe in God by faith alone. He used theology to show how God reveals Himself in scripture and philosophy to show how He reveals Himself in the natural world.  The author explains to us from Aquinas' work  Summa Theologica the five proofs for God and also explains Aquinas' teachings on the soul.This book takes and a difficult subject and makes it accessible for everyone who wants to know more.  It also contains prayers by and to St Aquinas and with Advent coming up it includes his four Advent homilies.  I think all the books in this series on the saints are excellent and worth reading and keeping.
