Description
Greek Science After Aristotle by G. E. R. Lloyd The origins of Western science can be traced back to ancient Greece, and this volume explores the fundamental contributions made during that period. After Aristotle's death, Greek scientists continued their inquiries into mathematics, astronomy, and biology, laying the groundwork for later developments. This book examines the interplay between science, philosophy, religion, and technology in ancient Greece, shedding light on the problems faced by those who sought to understand the natural world.
