Introductory Observations -- Chapter 2. “Before Philosophy”: Ancient Mesopotamia -- Chapter 3. Classical Antiquity -- Chapter 4. The Islamic Middle Ages -- Index.  aThis book is the first of a three-volume set introducing the history of scientific thought (including social and human science). The area covered in this volume is ancient Mesopotamia, classical Antiquity and the Islamic Middle Ages. Combining general descriptions with extensive excerpts from original sources in English translation, it concentrates on ways of thinking and actual argumentation and not just on results and mistakes; questions of validity are primarily dealt with in the perspective of the time of the writing, not on that of the 21st century. The work is of great interest to historians of science and culture, students as well as seasoned workers – but also for amateurs willing to invest the necessary serious efforts. 0aSciencexHistory.965232 0aHistory. 0aPhilosophyxHistory.970495 0aCulturexStudy and teaching.96608214aHistory of Science.96610124aHistory.24aHistory of Philosophy.97049724aCultural Studies.9587452 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303151505708iPrinted edition:z978303151507108iPrinted edition:z978303151508840uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-51506-4  aZDB-2-HTY  aZDB-2-SXH  c60320d60320
