Science before Socrates: Parmenides, Anaxagoras, and the New Astronomy
"Graham has produced a fascinating and enjoyable challenge to the standard narrative of scientific progress. The passion of his commitment to rehabilitating Parmenides and Anaxagoras as successful scientists is clear throughout."--Jenny Bryan,Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews"An especially interesting and valuable part of the book is Graham's reflections on the philosophy of science and on the role of historians of science, both of which he gives in the early chapters in a well-reasoned appendix. Highly recommended." -D.E. Hogg, emeritus, National Radio Astronomy Observatory,CHOICE
