"There is... drama and urgency in these dialogues." - The Bloomsbury Review. Renowned theologian Matthew Fox "interviews" Thomas Aquinas in a provocative reevaluation of the spirituality of the 13th-century saint. Fox reveals a passionate, prophetic, and mystical celebrator of the blessings of creation. The author speaks with Aquinas in a modern forum, questioning the saint about the Four Paths of creation spirituality; the responses are culled from Aquinas's works and include pieces never before translated into English. "Seizing Aquinas by scapular and capuche, Fox hauls him point by point through the fundamental issues of our day. The introduction is the finest thing on Aquinas I have ever read. It picks him up where Pieper and Chenu left him at mid-century and lifts him bodily through the paradigm shift into the new millennium." - William Everson, author of The Integral Years and The Residual Years "In this book, the teaching of Aquinas comes through with a fullness and an insight that has never been presented in English before, and that moreover is shown to have a vital message for the world today." - Father Bede Griffiths, author of A New Vision of Reality "This is an important book and will give much pleasure to those looking for deeper and richer philosophy." - New Humanity AUTHOR: Matthew Fox is a spiritual theologian, Episcopal priest, and an activist for gender justice and eco-justice.
