4.0 out of 5 stars
Not the comprehensive guide it pretends to be,
By Shalom Freedman "Shalom Freedman" (Jerusalem,Israel) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Greek Philosophers (Mentor) (Paperback)
This book is a survey of Greek philosophy from the pre- Socratics to Plotinus. It opens by telling the story of how Thales of Miletus and a group of Ionian thinkers began that inquiry into the character of the Universe which resulted in both Philosophy and Science. Warner is persuasive about the Greeks contribution to human civilization. But he does not go into detail on each writer. For Plato for instance he gives a long selection of the 'Meno' but does not really trace the overall development of Platonic thought. However he does provide a historical background to the thinking, and a general picture of each one with some excerpt of the work of the major thinkers.A fine work but not as detailed and complete as many other introductory works on the same subject.
