The book also considers the writings of Francisco Suárez, engaging the Suarezian understanding of the natural law in the light of Thomas and the later Thomists. In his Introduction, the author shares his literary motivation: “The aim of this work is not to create, expose or defend a new theory; it is rather to dig out the explanation of St. Thomas from the mass of commentaries and interpretations that are threatening to smother it, to set forth the explanation of St. Thomas, as given by Thomas, and, as far as possible, in the words of the Angelic Doctor” on law, the Eternal Law and the Natural Moral Law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe third volume in the Thomist Tradition book series, edited and intro­duced by Cajetan Cuddy, O.P., \u003ci\u003eThe Natural Law According to Aquinas and Suárez\u003c\/i\u003e remains a significant account of Thomistic natural law theory from one of its most popular, twentieth-century expositors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eTo the natural law belongs those things to which a man is inclined naturally.\u003c\/em\u003e –St. Thomas Aquinas\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWalter Raphael Farrell, O.P., \u003c\/b\u003e(1902–1951) was a Dominican priest and scholar.
