My understanding of Aquinas was helped considerably, both directly and by inference from the varying views on issues Kerr reports theologians choose to fight about! Particularly interested in chapter on doctrine of God, in which Kerr contests the common argument that Thomas presents an excessively "Hellenistic" , and therefore insufficiently Christian (Meaning non-trinitarian) account of the nature of God.
