Volume I
Logic is the art of thinking well. Are you trained in it? In a world where questionable decisions and ill-founded thinking prevail, logic is needed now more than ever before. A short, succinct, concise primer on this elementary skill, TAN Books is pleased to present to those beginning their journey in philosophy with the skill that is the basis for all reasoning: logic. Intended to give the basics on this art that produces clarity, sanity, and defense against irrational arguments, Logic guides the student through the principles needed in clear-thinking to encounter and work through difficulties in an increasingly complex world. Having the tool of logic is the way to prime the intellect in pursuit of truth and enable the soul to live as one who is truly free. Logic is the first of four volumes in the Foundations of Wisdom series by TAN Books and is designed to take the student from the foundational principles of rational thinking so as to give him the formation to discover the truth and defend against error.

Chosen
"The twenty-three men and women who tell their conversion stories in these pages were not drawn to the Church by sound evangelization programs, beautiful buildings and liturgies, or saintly witnesses among the clergy. On the contrary, many of them were attracted to Catholicism in spite of a now decades-long stretch of deficient catechesis, mediocre Masses, and uninspiring leadership. Christ himself led these souls to his Church, concludes editor Donna Steichen, who compiled this consoling collection, and it is the Lord who set them to work replanting his devastated vineyard. ""Despite their marked differences in origin, education, and field of service,"" writes Steichen, ""each one makes it ...
Secrets from Heaven: Hidden Treasure of Faith in the Parables and Conversations of Jesus
The greatest teacher who ever lived, Jesus knew how to reach his audience where they were at. Whether preaching to a group in parable or holding an intimate conversation, he had an unequaled ability to get across the message that his listeners needed to hear. His teachings in the Gospels speak no less directly to us today. But so rich in meaning are the words of our incarnate God, so layered and profound his messages, that often we fail to do more than scratch their surface. And over time, our habit of superficial encounter with the Word can become self- perpetuating. In Secrets from Heaven, Fr. Sebastian Walshe helps you break free from stale and familiar takes on the Gospel, giving you new...

Witness of the Saints
The writings of the Fathers of the Church have never been more widely available, yet obtaining an exhaustive and user-friendly volume of patristics can still be a daunting task. Without realizing it, many priests, seminarians, members of religious communities, and even laity already own a patristic library-their Liturgy of the Hours. In the four volumes of the Liturgy of the Hours, the official daily prayer of the Catholic Church, there are nearly 600 selections from the writings of Fathers and saints. Seeing the potential of this vast collection as a theological resource, Milton Walsh has organized these selections by topics according to the four pillars of the Catechism of the Catholic Chu...
Faith and Humility
This book is devoted to articulating the connections between the nature and value of faith and humility. The goal is to understand faith and humility in a way that does not discriminate between religious and mundane contexts, between sacred and secular. It arises from a conviction that these two character traits are important to a flourishing life, and intimately related to each other in such a way that the presence of one demands the presence of the other. In particular, the book defends the claim that each of these virtues provides a necessary, compensating balance to the potential downside of the other virtue. The result of such an inquiry, if that inquiry is successful, will require a re-orienting of discussions surrounding faith, including debates about the relationship between faith and reason.
The Foundations of Wisdom:

Written by the author of the textbook himself, the Ethics Study Guide was designed as a companion guide for the reader of the text that offers prompts and questions to help home in on the key takeaways from eac...
