  This is a very good, concise, updated version of Benedict Ashley's The Way toward Wisdom (2006), which itself drew its inspiration from John Deely's Four Ages of Understanding. Ashley and Deely are certainly a symbiotic duo, as Deely's semiotics plus Ashley's Thomism and extensive wisdom certainly bear excellent intellectual fruit, like How Science Enriches Theology, which appears to be inspired primarily by Deely's 2010 update to his 2001 Four Ages of Understanding, Medieval Philosophy Redefined. On the philosophical side: One of Ashley & Deely main theses, in accordance with the River Forest School, is that modern science cannot be a stand-alone philosophy. In other words, there cannot be a Wolffian distinction between "science" and "philosophy," the latter of which Kant's disciple Wolff identifies with metaphysics/ontology.

  I've had a lot of fun opening up to the date and discovering what today's question is. I'm always telling myself I need to journal, so I can remember all the memories later... but never get around to it. This gives me little snippets to look back on and remember, without taking me forever to write it out. I love it! The design is crisp and clean, and I love the cover as well. Looking forward to writing in this for the next few years!
