• Socrates
• Plato
• Aristotle
• Marcus Aurelius
• Pythagoras
• Seneca
ABOUT THE SERIES: The critically-acclaimed Knowledge in a Nutshell series provides accessible and engaging introductions to wide-ranging topics, written by experts in their fields.

About the Author:

Michael Moore is a doctoral student in philosophy at the University of Chicago. He specializes in the ideas of Plato and Aristotle and in the works of Epicurus, Plotinus, and Lucretius among others. While his primary concern is philosophy, he enjoys classical poetry, drama, and literature.

Seeking to bring the ideas of the Ancient Greeks and Romans to a wider audience, he runs a blog at www.ancientgreekphilosopher.com\
