Synopsis

"This is a translation of nearly every scrap of the writings of the Greek Pre-Socratic Philosophers, from the nearly legendary Orpheus, thru Thales, Pythagoras, Heracleitus, Zeno & Democritus. Included are translations of all known quotations from each writer, names of lost books they wrote, what other authors said about their beliefs, as well as spurious & dubious quotes. Some of the entries, indeed most, are very short, as we only know the names & a bit of biography for some of these figures. This book is a great reference for this topic & makes fascinating reading."--sacred-texts.com
