Steven A. Long's work stands in contradistinction to historical-doctrinal surveys and general introductions, retrieving by way of an interpretation of Aristotle and Aquinas the indispensable role that analogy of being plays for metaphysics and, consequently, for theology. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn his later writings St. Thomas did not return to questions about the analogy of being that he had answered earlier in his career. This has led most historical-textual treatments of analogy in current scholarship to the mistaken conclusion that Thomas actually changed his answers to these questions. Scholars fail to see the continuity between his treatment in the \u003ci\u003eSumma theologiae\u003c\/i\u003e and his earlier \u003ci\u003eDe veritate\u003c\/i\u003e. Long's study demonstrates the coherence of St. Thomas's earlier and later analyses. It shows how Thomas's later account in the \u003ci\u003eSumma theologiae\u003c\/i\u003e necessarily presupposes his earlier teaching. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a book that invites the reader to a demanding and speculatively intense appreciation of the metaphysics of analogy. It will contribute significantly to the growing debate on the analogy of being.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteven A.
