The book The Nature of Man in St. Thomas Aquinas Compared with the Nature of Man in American Sociology by Roberta Snell is a comparative study of the views of St. Thomas Aquinas and American sociology on the nature of man. The author explores the philosophical and theological perspectives of St. Thomas Aquinas, a medieval theologian and philosopher, and compares them with the sociological perspectives of American sociology. The book delves into the fundamental concepts of human nature, such as the soul, free will, and the relationship between the individual and society. It also examines the role of religion and morality in shaping human behavior and attitudes.The author argues that while St. Thomas Aquinas emphasized the importance of the individual's relationship with God and the spiritual nature of man, American sociology tends to focus on the social and cultural influences on human behavior. The book provides an insightful analysis of the similarities and differences between these two perspectives and offers a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate on the nature of man. It is a must-read for students and scholars of philosophy, theology, and sociology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
