Presocratics Natural Philosophers Before Socrates

"An excellent book and a pleasure to read. Readers are encouraged to engage with the judiciously chosen material, and Warren makes the Presocratics stimulating and exciting. An ideal book for an undergraduate class."--Steven Makin "James Warren's new book is an attractive and worthwhile addition to the literature on Presocratic thought currently available to students. Among its greatest assets are a splendid 'introduction to reading Presocratic philosophy'; excellent chapters on the Milesians, Xenophanes, Heraclitus, and Empedocles; engagement with the most recent scholarly literature; clarity of expression; and a focus on the philosophically interesting question."--J.
