Dr. Peter Kreeft is professor of philosophy at Boston College and one of the most respected and prolific Christian authors of our time, with more than a hundred books spanning spirituality, theology, and philosophy. A convert to Catholicism shaped by his study of Church history and the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas, he earned his doctorate at Fordham University and has taught philosophy since 1965.
Known for making the deepest truths accessible with wit and clarity — he is often called a modern C.S. Lewis — Kreeft’s bestsellers include Heaven: The Heart’s Deepest Longing, A Summa of the Summa, and the Handbook of Christian Apologetics. For Ascension, he contributed to Disorientation: How to Go to College Without Losing Your Mind, helping students recognize and answer the intellectual currents they will encounter at university.
