Praise for this book
A. S. McGrade
"A superb scholarly synthesis of medieval into early modern legal, philosophical, and theological sources for an idea widely and not always favorably regarded as a product of the European Enlightenment. . . A scholarly gem with cutting-edge relevance for our present global condition."
