And so it has been this week. Needless to say, I am surprised and honored and humbled by the present notice. - John W.

I would like to add the gloss that although it is not an empirical, or "hard" science, philosophy is a science nonetheless. I've read in recent months that some of St. Thomas Aquinas' musings on the deep structures of reality have been verified by late twentieth-century particle physics. But of course the truths of philosophy need not be empirically verifiable in order to be true and trustworthy. Thanks for helping us remember, and for your comments on E. F. Schumacher. - Dave Thu, 16 Feb 2012 05:54:17 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2012/you-can-look-it-up.html#comment-9972 Having relied on Bernard Wuellner's "Dictionary of Scholastic Philosophy" for many years, it was with much anticipation that I awaited the release of this book. This is quite an excellent resource and gift for those seeking to grow in wisdom. In our ge of muddled thinking, this dictionary is indispensable. I also had the pleasure of meeting the author at Notre Dame last year a conference. I highly recommend this book. - Timothy J.A. O'Donnell Thu, 16 Feb 2012 02:10:33 +0100
