Many may think that theologians have more immediate concerns in today's world than angelology and demonology, admits Bonino, and even he confesses that angels and demons play a marginal role in Catholic theology. But a role they play nonetheless, he says. He discusses the traditional facts and their interpretation, angelic nature, the angelic adventure, and angels and demons in the history of salvation. Among his topics are angels and demons in the Old and New Testaments, the development of Christian angelology until St. Thomas Aquinas, the metaphysical status of the angel, the affective life of the angels, how angels became demons, Jesus Christ as head of the angels, and the enemy's attack.
