Fans if GKC will love this book; everybody else who is interested in the history of ideas can do themselves a favor by reading it and meeting both the author and his subject. Chesterton isn't always easy to read, but he is always challenging AND rewarding because he forces you to use your mind in a way that brings the thrill of discovery and the satisfaction of learning something new. His boundless enthusiasm for Aquinas is persuasive, but his masterful use of language and his humility before his hero is impressively gentle. Aquinas, an intellectual and spiritual giant, devoted his life to the pursuit of truth; Chesterton's analysis of his personality and his philosophy is a classic.
