Summary: Good Presentation in Latin and English
Comment: This presentation of Duns Scotus's classic early fourteenth century work is very well done by one of the foremost authorities on his work. In it, Duns Scotus attempts to reason from logic and Aristotelian philosophy to demonstrate the existence and the nature of God. His manner somewhat follows that of St. Augustine and St. Anselm, as he records his prayers for God's assistance in his efforts, as well as his praise for God's glory and truth. The publication provides an English translation together with the Latin text on facing pages. More than 200 page of commentary were added to the 1983 edition, providing paragraph-by-paragraph analysis of Duns Scotus's reasoning following the text. Unfortunately, the quality of the binding of my copy was not very good. The book began to fall apart almost as soon as I opened it. However, there is no other publisher providing anything comparable. It would be helpful if the same publisher could offer this book in a hardback edition, as it is not the sort of thing one speed-reads!
