Opis

This book investigates the intelligibility of two doctrines: that God is the last end of rational creatures, and that God is three persons in one substance. Both these doctrines are essential to Christian belief as understood in the Catholic tradition. Studying the work of Aquinas, St. Augustine and Aristotle, Durrant's examination is also conducted in a contemporary idiom with special reference to the works of Frege, Russell, Anscombe, Geach, Strawson and the early Wittgenstein.
