Beschreibung:
In this work, Daniel W. Graham argues against the belief that the Presocratic philosophers did not produce any empirical science and that the first major Greek science, astronomy, did not develop until at least the time of Plato. Instead, Graham proposes that the advances made by presocratic philosophers in the study of astronomy deserve to be considered as scientific contributions.
