Paperback. Condition: Good. A Guide to Greek Thought ? Major Figures and Trends (2003) by Jacques Brunschwig & Geoffrey E. R. Lloyd ? Condition: Good (Crappy Old Books) If you?ve ever wanted to time-travel to ancient Greece without the inconvenience of sandals and city-states constantly at war, A Guide to Greek Thought is your p…assport. Edited by Jacques Brunschwig and Geoffrey E. R. Lloyd, and published by the Belknap Press of Harvard University Press in 2003 (ISBN: 9780674021563), this volume is exactly what it says on the cover: a guided tour of the giants of Greek philosophy and the big currents of thought they stirred up. Socrates, Plato, Aristotle?yes, of course?but also the Sophists, the Stoics, the Epicureans, and other schools that prove the Greeks were never short of opinions on how best to live, argue, and eat figs. This isn?t just a dry catalogue of names and dates; it?s a lucid, engaging map of an intellectual landscape that still shapes us today. Brunschwig and Lloyd corral a team of distinguished scholars who manage to make metaphysics sound less like an exam question and more like a lively dinner debate. Want to understand how logic got its start? Why Epicurus thought tranquility was the highest good? Or why Heraclitus kept muttering about rivers? It?s all here, unpacked with clarity and wit. Now, about the copy: it?s sold by Crappy Old Books and rated Good . Which means the cover may show a bit of shelfwear (nothing tragic, just the literary equivalent of toga wrinkles), the spine has been flexed, and the pages may carry the faint tan of time. But everything is intact, legible, and ready for another round of philosophical contemplation. No missing leaves, no suspicious wine stains from Athenian symposia, no margin notes in Attic Greek?just a solid, serviceable copy. In short: A Guide to Greek Thought is both an introduction and a refresher course in the thinkers who defined Western philosophy. This copy is in Good condition?worn enough to look wise, but sturdy enough to endure another couple of millennia. Another cerebral gem from Crappy Old Books, where even Plato would approve (probably).

Paperback. Condition: New. This collection brings together leading anthropologists, historians, philosophers, and artificial-intelligence researchers to discuss the sciences and mathematics used in various Eastern, Western, and Indigenous societies, both ancient and contemporary. The authors analyze prevailing assumptions about…these societies and propose more faithful, sensitive analyses of their ontological views about reality-a step toward mutual understanding and translatability across cultures and research fields.Science in the Forest, Science in the Past is a pioneering interdisciplinary exploration that will challenge the way readers interested in sciences, mathematics, humanities, social research, computer sciences, and education think about deeply held notions of what constitutes reality, how it is apprehended, and how to investigate it.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Near Fine. Minor crease to DJ flap.; Ancient Greek thought is the essential wellspring from which the intellectual, ethical, and political civilization of the West draws and to which, even today, we repeatedly return. In more than sixty essays by an international team of scholars, this volume explores… the full breadth and reach of Greek thought--investigating what the Greeks knew as well as what they thought about what they knew, and what they believed, invented, and understood about the conditions and possibilities of knowing. Calling attention to the characteristic reflexivity of Greek thought, the analysis in this book reminds us of what our own reflections owe to theirs. In sections devoted to philosophy, politics, the pursuit of knowledge, major thinkers, and schools of thought, this work shows us the Greeks looking at themselves, establishing the terms for understanding life, language, production, and action. The authors evoke not history, but the stories the Greeks told themselves about history; not their poetry, but their poetics; not their speeches, but their rhetoric. Essays that survey political, scientific, and philosophical ideas, such as those on Utopia and the Critique of Politics, Observation and Research, and Ethics; others on specific fields from Astronomy and History to Mathematics and Medicine; new perspectives on major figures, from Anaxagoras to Zeno of Elea; studies of core traditions from the Milesians to the various versions of Platonism: together these offer a sense of the unquenchable thirst for knowledge that marked Greek civilization--and that Aristotle considered a natural and universal trait of humankind. With thirty-two pages of color illustrations, this work conveys the splendor and vitality of the Greek intellectual adventure.; Harvard University Press Reference Library; 171.45 X 58.42 X 254 millimeters; 1056 pages.
