{"product_id":"right-practical-reason-daniel-westberg-9780198267317","title":"Right Practical Reason: Aristotle, Action, and Prudence in Aquinas","description":"This book is a study of the role of intellect in human action as described by Thomas Aquinas. One of its primary aims is to compare the interpretation of Aristotle by Aquinas with the lines of interpretation offered in contemporary Aristotelian scholarship. The book seeks to clarify the problems involved in the appropriation of Aristotle's theory by a Christian theologian, including such topics as the practical syllogism and the problems of \u003cem\u003eakrasia\u003c\/em\u003e. Westberg argues that Aquinas was much closer to Aristotle than is often recognized, and he puts forward important new interpretations of the relation of intellect and will in the stages of intention, deliberation, decision, and execution. In the concluding section of the book, he shows how this new interpretation yields fruitful insights on a range of theological topics, including sin, law, love, and the moral virtues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Westberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198267312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198267317\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarendon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.86w x 1.01d","brand":"Daniel Westberg","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44054450929919,"sku":"9780198267317","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_68300a9f-38e7-4ce0-b32d-3c08ca918a2b.jpg?v=1685030050","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/right-practical-reason-daniel-westberg-9780198267317","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
