Great Scientists of Antiquity. The Seven Greek Sages, or the Dawn of Science
14.99 €
Thales, Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, Hippocrates, Theophrastus, Archimedes, Euclid... Most of these names are well known to anyone familiar with the history of science. Each of these celebrated names is separated from us by many centuries, and therefore the reader will be interested in learning something new about the work of these great figures of ancient science, the circumstances of their lives, their upbringing, and a critical assessment of the various works with which they contributed to the accumulation and development of human knowledge. This purpose is served by this book by the 19th-century French writer and naturalist Louis Figuier. Published in France in 1866, it was immediately translated into English, German, and Russian. Even today, Figuier's book enjoys well-deserved respect not only in the academic world but also among the general reading public.
