As a Dominican friar, Thomas Aquinas was committed to living a life of poverty, in accord with Jesus' words:

Ifyou want to be perfect, go, sell your

possessions and give to the poor (Mat. 19.21). Accordingly, the author's roy­ alties from this Aquinas book have been donated to Bread for the World.
