In this episode of the Grindstone, Jonah Falcone sits down with Jeff Brower, a professor of philosophy at Purdue University. The focus of this interview is to discuss Dr. Brower’s latest book, “Aquinas’s Ontology of the Material World”.

This episode is mainly concerned with how Dr. Brower interprets Aquinas’ views on the fundamental reality of both the material and immaterial world. Topics discussed are the line between philosophy and religion, the nature of God, Aquinas’s hylomorphism, and whether hylomorphism is compatible with our understanding of modern science. Thank you to Mo Hunt for controlling the audio behind the scenes. Enjoy!
