About this title

Synopsis

This book is a study of the origins and development of Greek science, focusing especially on the interactions of scientific and traditional patterns of thought from the sixth- to the fourth-centuries BC. Dr Lloyd examines why the Greeks invented science and what social, economic, ideological and political factors had a bearing on its growth.
