New Book on Lying and Homosexual Activity

John Skalko has published a book, Disordered Actions: A Moral Analysis of Lying and Homosexual Activity.

There is to the best of my knowledge no previous scholarly book-length defense of Aquinas on homosexuality.  Prior to the publication of Skalko’'s work, you only had Gareth Moore and Adriano Oliva, both Dominicans, who either attacked or reinterpreted Aquinas. I reviewed Oliva’s work for The Thomist, and it seemed to me either incompetent or dishonest.
