"The Alphonsian Academy is proud to present in volume 8 of its series, Quaestionoes Morales, the collected ethical writings of Joseph Owens, C.Ss.R. Father Owens was a member of our faculty from 1951-52, before going on to The Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies in Toronto, where he was to spend more than forty years cultivating an academic career that made him one of the foremost living authorities of the thought of Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas. Although a metaphysician by trade, Father Owens has always kept a strong interest in the philosophical issues lying beneath the surface of people's moral dilemmas. The present volume, Some Philosophical Issues in Moral Matters, demonstrates the depth of his concern for examining the theoretical dimensions of moral action." - Editors' Preface.
