  Geometry.Net - Philosophers Books: Aquinas St Thomas   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The book explains how much of an Aristotilian Aquinas was, and more importantly how much he was not.
Mainly by showing how the charactoristics of the Latin Averroists have been unjustly attributed to Aquinas by his detractors - the Latin Averoists (Averoes was an Arab) were whole hearted Aristotilians.
This book is an excellent addition to reading Etienne Gilson's "Unity of the Philosophical Experience" as Pieper gives further explanantions as to the behavior of the Augastinians and Latin Averroists.
