Synopsis

In many debates over ethical issues today, the argument swirls around a central question: "What exactly is a human?" Further, is there a difference between a human "being" and a human "person"? In this book, these and other contemporary questions are surveyed through the thought of medieval philosopher Thomas Aquinas, in order to find some surprisingly relevant answers. Craig Payne is a professor of humanities at Indian Hills College, Iowa.
