Exploring the use of casting lots to discern divine will, this translation of Thomas Aquinas's letter, written around 1270, offers insights into when such practices are appropriate versus mere superstition. It addresses the historical context of Aquinas's thoughts on decision-making, particularly regarding the appointment of a bishop. The book includes an introduction to Aquinas's life and eight essays that provide varied perspectives on the text, making it an accessible entry point into the philosophy of one of history's most influential thinkers.
