A History of Greek Philosophy: Volume 1, the Earlier Presocratics and the Pythagoreans Hardcover - 1962

by W. K. Guthrie


From the publisher

All volumes of Professor Guthrie's great history of Greek philosophy have won their due acclaim. The most striking merits of Guthrie's work are his mastery of a tremendous range of ancient literature and modern scholarship, his fairness and balance of judgement and the lucidity and precision of his English prose. He has achieved clarity and comprehensiveness.

First line

Purely practical considerations ordain that we should not pursue our subject too far into its embryonic stage, or at least not to a time before its conception.
