Focusing on metaphysics, this book delves into Saint Thomas Aquinas's natural law teaching, emphasizing its foundation in first principles of practical reason. It explores the controversial nature of how these principles function as laws and engages with various interpretations from notable philosophers. Key discussions include the relationship between natural law and human inclination, the necessity of understanding human nature, the obligatory force of natural law, and its connection to the divine will, which Aquinas views as the ultimate principle of existence.
