It follows with an in-depth examination of the human individual. Topics include the nature of the human (body and soul), the possibility and sources of knowledge, the process of knowledge (sensation, memory, intellect), free will and grace, human destiny, and human origins. A final chapter explores Augustine's thought on the existence and nature of God. An appendix gives a brief description of two of the major controversies in Augustine's life: Pelagianism and Semi-Pelagianism.
