The treatise considers ten questions related to God's power to create external things, namely the universe, angels, and human beings. His explanation of creation here is the most developed treatment found in any of his writings, but the principal purpose of the work is to analyze the internal life of God--that is, the Trinity. According to Aquinas, we predicate the Persons of the Trinity as relations, not as absolute things, and he examines the processions of the Son and the Holy Spirit in the light of reason. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe complete \u003cem\u003eDe potentia \u003c\/em\u003eis a very long document. In this new translation, Fr. Richard Regan offers an abridged version that passes over some of the full text while retaining what is most important when it comes to following the flow of Aquinas's thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Aquinas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199914621\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199914623\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e OUP Us\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 1.00d","brand":"Thomas Aquinas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46617844023551,"sku":"9780199914623","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3665d424-8fb1-4c8f-b03c-44254c0f5644.jpg?v=1740068482","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/power-of-god-thomas-aquinas-9780199914623","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
