The book The Cause of Being: The Philosophy of Creation in St. Thomas by James Francis Anderson is a comprehensive study of the philosophical ideas of St. Thomas Aquinas regarding the concept of creation. The author examines the metaphysical principles of St. Thomas and his understanding of the relationship between God, the world, and human beings. Anderson delves into Aquinas' theory of causality and his belief in the existence of a first cause, which he identifies as God. The book explores how Aquinas' philosophy of creation is grounded in his understanding of the nature of God, as well as his view of the world as a contingent and finite entity. Anderson also discusses Aquinas' ideas about the nature of human beings and their place in the world. Overall, The Cause of Being offers a detailed and insightful analysis of the philosophical ideas of St. Thomas Aquinas regarding creation, and provides readers with a deeper understanding of his views on the nature of reality and the role of God in the universe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
