Abstract

This book is described as an introductory course for first year students. A good text-book in Moral Philosophy or General Ethics has been wanting. It is not an easy subject. But Father Crofts has been for many years engaged in the work of adult education, and he is thus intimately aware of the needs of adults. He is also a good Thomist. His treatment follows that of St. Thomas, not indeed slavishly, but with a judicious sprinkling of quotations from Aquinas, which succinctly sum up a discussion on a particular subject.
