Eureka! Shows that science began with the Greeks. They gave birth to disciplines as diverse as medicine, cosmology and mathematics. But how, and why? Free from intellectual and religious dogma, the Greeks rejected explanation in terms of myths and capricious gods: they were the first to discover nature, a revolution in the history of thought without compare. With patience and panache Andrew Gregory unravels the genesis of science in this fascinating exploration of the origins of Western civilisation.
