Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109), Benedictine monk and the second Norman archbishop of Canterbury, is regarded as one of the most important philosophers and theologians of the Middle Ages.

They also cover his life, the sources of his thought, and his influence on other thinkers.
Review "This book is a fine introduction."
Church Times
"Even though Anselm of Canterbury counts among the classical thinkers in Christian philosophical theology, there has been no up-to-date, comprehensive introduction to his thought available. The publication of a volume dedicated to him in the series of Cambridge Companions is, hence, a welcome event." - Toivo J. Holopainen, University of Helsinki
"The new volume devoted to Anselm appearing in the excellent series, Cambridge Companions to Philosophy, will be of interest both to general readers in religion and to specialists in medieval philosophy and theology alike." - Anglican Theological Review Joseph H. Pearson, Fordham University
