Synopsis
This four-volume set recognizes that philosophy in the ancient Greek world began as a universal science, inextricably linked with religion, literature and the special sciences. These themes and their protagonists are incorporated into the historical descriptions and arguments. It traces the history from its very beginnings, through Plato and Aristotle up until the 3rd century BC with the transference of scientific progress away from philosophy to its subordinate branches.
