Classical Philosophy by Peter Adamson
A History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps, Volume 1
A concise, accessible survey of ancient Greek and Hellenistic thought that traces the development of philosophy from the pre-Socratics through Socrates, Plato and Aristotle to the major Hellenistic schools, situating their metaphysical, epistemological and ethical doctrines in historical context; it explains core ideas such as forms, substance, causation, virtue and skepticism, examines debates about knowledge and the good life, and guides readers through primary texts and scholarly controversies with clear narrative and critical exposition.
