It functions as an authoritative "who's who" of medieval philosophy, each entry followed by its own bibliography and woven into an extensively cross-referenced, fully indexed whole. Its scope is genuinely ecumenical: no fewer than 138 medieval Christian, Islamic, and Jewish philosophers spanning the fourth to the fifteenth century. Substantial essays treat the great figures — Augustine, Boethius, Averroes, Aquinas, Maimonides, Duns Scotus, Ockham — while shorter entries recover many lesser-known thinkers, from Bernard of Clairvaux to Peter of Auvergne and beyond. The contributors are a distinguished international roster of specialists. Worth Knowing Edited by Jorge J. E. Gracia of the State University of New York at Buffalo and Timothy B. Noone of The Catholic University of America — a noted Duns Scotus scholar. Reviewers have welcomed it as a long-needed one-volume reference filling a real gap in the field, praised for information that is rich and precise yet simply arranged. This is the durable cloth hardcover edition — the one libraries and long-term reference users prefer. 138 Philosophers The medieval "who's who," A to Z.
