In dialogue with the scholastic tradition and with contemporary theologians and philosophers, Porter develops a distinctive and somewhat surprising contemporary natural law approach to theological ethics. Nature as Reason solidifies her role as a very significant voice in Christian ethics today.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Jean Porter</note> <subject> <topic>Christian ethics</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Natural theology</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Thomas, Aquinas, Saint, 1225?-1274 Ethics</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>3003 - Christian ethics7617 - Natural theology8302 - Thomas</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Aquinas</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Saint</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>1225?-1274 Ethics ​</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">241</classification> <classification authority="ddc">P844-J43</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780802849069, 0802849067</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13987/n.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13987/n.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071319.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
