Description

Explore the foundations of Western thought with From the Beginning to Plato, the first volume in the Routledge History of Philosophy series. This academic text provides a detailed account of how philosophical inquiry evolved over two and a half centuries. Starting with the early ideas of Thales in the sixth century BC, the book follows the progression of thought through the ancient world.
