The book presents four essays exploring ancient Greek thought in relation to its social context. The first essay highlights the practical nature of early Greek science, emphasizing the connection between observation and action. The second examines the impact of societal attitudes towards manual work on the development of medicine, particularly the Hippocratic approach. The third focuses on Stoicism's evolution from an eastern-inspired philosophy to a tool for Roman social cohesion. The final essay contrasts the ideas of Epicurus and Cicero, illustrating the tension between scientific thought and superstition in Roman society.
