More about the book
"Medicine, anatomy, astronomy, mathematics and cosmology -- science began with the Greeks, and Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras, Archimedes and Hippocrates were among its stars. 'Eureka!' shows how, free from intellectual and religious dogma, these early thinkers rejected myths and capricious gods and, in distinguishing between the natural and supernatural, effectively discovered nature. Their development of a rational 'scientific' attitude to the natural world is one of the true wonders of human thought." -- from the rear cover.
