Publisher's Synopsis

"One of the first scholarly and systematic looks at the natural philosophy of Ptolemy, its ethical implications, and its departure from the thought of Aristotle. Taub's writing is clear and succinct, and her ability to handle original texts is outstanding...a unique contribution of our understanding of the history of science and philosophy in late antiquity."
--The Modern Schoolman
