ISBN10: 0199288704, ISBN13: 9780199288700, [publisher: OUP Oxford] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Geoffrey Lloyd's pioneering book uses a study of ancient Greek and Chinese science and culture to throw light on fundamental problems, both intellectual and moral, that we still face today. The issues range from the debate about realism and relativism in philosophy of science to doubts concerning the universal applicability of the discourse of human rights. Lloyd provides compelling evidence that ancient civilizations have much to offer contemporary debates in many fields of study.
