J. Budziszewski (Boojee-shef-skee) is a professor of government, philosophy, and civic leadership at the University of Texas at Austin. Internationally recognized for his work on natural law, self-deception, happiness, and ultimate purpose, he is widely read on the unraveling and possible restoration of our common culture. Among his twenty precious books are What We Can’t Not Know, How and How Not to Be Happy, On the Meaning of Sex, The Line Through the Heart, The Revenge of Conscience, and a series of line-by-line commentaries on Thomas Aquinas’s Summa Theologiae. Married for more than five decades, a teacher for more than four, Budziszewski had two grown children and a clutch of grandchildren.

His writing has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, First Things, National Review, and the Weekly Standard. Professor Budziszewski lives in Austin, Texas.
