Eureka! (Paperback)

The Birth of Science

Andrew Gregory

That man ever managed to develop to 'scientific' attitude to the natural world is one of true wonders of human thought. And answering the question of where and how this attitude began can help us understand the world we live in and the science that governs it. Science began with the Greeks. But is Greek science something we would recognise today? This superbly approachable book has won many plaudits since publication late in 2001.



Andrew Gregory is a young writer on science who also teaches in the Department of Science and Technology Studies at University College, London. He is the author of Harvey's Heart: The Discovery of Blood Circulation and Plato's Philosophy of Science.
