Paul J. Glenn's book Cosmology is a philosophical text that examines the physical universe from a Scholastic and Aristotelian perspective. It focuses on the nature of change, motion, time, place, and the properties of bodies, such as quantity and substance. The work emphasizes the distinction between a purely physical or scientific account of the universe and a metaphysical one. It generally aims to reconcile the study of the material world with the principles of Thomistic philosophy, discussing concepts like primary matter and substantial form as foundations for understanding reality.
