Reviews
This condensed survey of Greek philosophers extends from Thales, the sixth-century B.C. founder of the discipline, to Plotinus and Neoplatonism in the third century A.D. Luce (Trinity College, Dublin) focuses a vast amount of material by concentrating on the philosophers themselves, examining their lives within a societal and economic context in order to identify the influences that inspired an individual thinker and the impact he made on the intellectuals of his era. Luce's fresh, lively presentation of the information and inclusion of a wealth of sources make this an excellent catalyst for the novice philosophy student. Highly recommended.
