Description
George G.M. James challenges the traditional view of the origins of Greek philosophy in this thought-provoking work.
James argues that the true authors of Greek philosophy were not the Greeks, but the peoples of Egypt, whose intellectual traditions were unfairly overlooked by history.
Through a detailed examination of the historical record, James presents a compelling case for the Egyptian origins of Greek philosophy, shedding new light on the subject and offering a fresh perspective on the development of Western thought.
