Philosophers didn't always busy themselves with life's big
questions. The earliest ancient philosophers were primarily
concerned with the world of nature, including phenomena such as
earthquakes and eclipses. But one enigmatic Greek named Socrates
began to explore abstract ideas about human existence. What makes
us happy? What is the nature of the soul? And what is our purpose
in this universe? Professor William Prior elegantly guides readers
through philosophy's formative years and key ancient texts.
Organised into four themes - nature, reality, the soul and ethics -
Ancient Philosophy: A Beginner's Guide is a lively introduction to
the great thinkers who still send our minds reeling today.
