She has received several awards from the John Templeton foundation for her

Morality.”  Professor George has authored over 50 peer-reviewed articles
and two books:  *Christianity and Extraterrestrials? A Catholic
Perspective*(2005)

Aquinas’s “Fifth Way,” and also on a variety of questions concerning living
things (self-motion, consciousness, evolution, etc.).  Professor George is

Philosophical Association, the Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy, and
the Society for Aristotelian Studies.
