Description:
As well as being an important medieval theologian, Albertus Magnus (Albert the Great) also made significant contributions to the study of astronomy, geography and natural philosophy, and his studies of the natural world led Pope Pius XII to declare Albertus the patron saint of the natural sciences. Dante Alighieri acknowledged a substantial debt to Albertus's work, and in The Divine Comedy placed him equal with his celebrated student and brother Dominican Thomas Aquinas.
In this, the first full, scholarly biography in English for nearly a century, Irven M. Resnick and Kenneth F. Kitchell Jr narrate Albertus' key contributions to natural philosophy and the history of science, while also revealing the insights into medieval life and customs that his writings provide.

My Favorite Blanky
Color: Yellow&grey, Size: 60"x80", Color: Yellow&grey, Size: 60"x80"
The color of the yellow/grey is exceptional. The blending and pattern of the two colors makes for a very realistic looking pelt and the colors go with an extensive variety of other colors you may have in your home. In a couple of spots you could see little clumps where the fur was sticking out further than the rest, almost like it was trying to shed, but I just took scissors and cut the little tuffs to be even with the rest of the fur. Never once has it actually shed. It holds smells really well so washing it on a delicate cycle with those scent booster beads and then putting it in the dryer on the Air Dry setting creates this magical scent that fills an entire room. I have issues with a lot of textures so I’m very particular about my fabrics and furs and I can tell you this blanket feels like pure bliss and does not give me sensory overload or an icky feeling. It’s a great weight as well, id say it’s a medium-heavy blanket. It’s exactly what I was looking for. I have had this blanket for about a year now and the quality is definitely worth it. It’s held up against 3 big dogs, my toddler, and my newborn and it still looks like it just got delivered to me. Personally I thought the blanket was going to be bigger, but I am still content with the size. it’s gone from my couch to my bed and fits both perfectly. I love it on both. I feel that for the price the blanket could have been bigger but other than that, it was worth the money.

This is What You Need on Those Cold Winter Nights!
Color: White, Size: Throw-50"x60"
This Touchat 1000GSM Faux Fur Throw Blanket is absolutely incredible and one of the softest, coziest blankets I’ve ever owned! The thickness and quality are immediately noticeable the moment you touch it. It feels luxuriously plush, warm, and incredibly comforting.
The faux fur texture is beautiful and looks very high-end, adding a stylish and elegant touch to the room while also being amazingly functional for cold nights. The blanket has a nice heavy weight to it that makes it feel extra cozy and relaxing without being too overwhelming.
I love curling up with this blanket while watching TV, reading, or sleeping. It provides outstanding warmth and comfort and feels like wrapping yourself in pure softness. Even after use, it maintains its fluffy texture and doesn’t shed like some faux fur blankets do.
The quality truly exceeded my expectations. The stitching is well done, the material feels durable, and it looks far more expensive than it actually is. It would also make an amazing gift because it feels so luxurious and comforting.
Highly recommend this blanket to anyone wanting something extra warm, thick, soft, and beautiful for their home. Absolutely worth every penny!

Stunning, soft & well made
Color: White, Size: Throw-50"x60", Color: White, Size: Throw-50"x60"
This blanket is beautiful! Soft on the back side and the feel of the fur is thick and real feeling. Looks absolutely stunning with my velvet pillows also from Amazon. Blanket is a good size for an adult and warm too. The overall look is very high end IMO. I see this blanket as being well made and something that will last. Overall I'm super pleased and would recommend to a friend! I will probably buy another for the bed.
