| Abstract
|
:
|
Zeno's extraordinary and disturbing paradoxes, the atomic theories of Democritus that so strikingly anticipate contemporary physics, the enigmatic and haunting epigrams of Heraclitus-these are just some of the riches to be found in this collection of the writings of the early Greek philosophers
