Thomas Aquinas entered the Benedictine abbey of Montecassino at the age of five to begin his studies. He was transferred to the University of Naples at age 16, where he became acquainted with the revival of Aristotle and the Order of the Dominicans. Aquinas went on to study in Cologne in 1244 and Paris in 1245. He then returned to Cologne in 1248, where he became a lecturer.
Aquinas’ career as a theologian took him all over Europe. In addition to regularly lecturing and teaching in cities throughout Europe, Aquinas participated regularly in public life and advised both kings and popes. Thomas Aquinas also profoundly influenced the history of Protestantism. He wrote prolifically on the relationship between faith and reason, as well as the theological and philosophical issues which defined the Reformation.
Thomas Aquinas is most well-known for his monumental works Summa Theologica and Summa contra Gentiles.

As far as I can tell, this is the same translation and Latin as https://verbum.com/product/4246/summa-theologica-english-and-latin-bundle. Interestingly, the Latin of this version has English for the Question and Article headings and lacks the cross-references under the Article titles. I can't comment on how much it's been 'updated and corrected' because I've only had a brief look at it. The only thing I've noticed is that where the older version has the letter J, which Latin doesn't have, this version has the letter I. If you can get this in a library package, as I did, it's okay, but I'm not sure I'd pay for this one over the older version.

How does this differ from https://verbum.com/product/4246/summa-theologica-english-and-latin-bundle? How extensive is the updated and corrected translation?
