Critics Review
“The authors’ selections [of Scotus’s texts] arejudicious - chosen not only because of the way they highlight the topics atissue, but also to supplement what is already available.

The discussions of Scotus’s proof for the existence of God and ofScotus’s epistemology are nothing less than outstanding.”
