Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the science of the Egyptians and Chaldeans and their influence on Pythagorean philosophy and beyond. The author gathers evidence to review the development of Greek knowledge in the context of its time and presents an argument that suggests the Egyptians and Chaldeans had developed significant scientific knowledge prior to the Greeks. The author also presents evidence that Greek physicians may have been heavily influenced by Egyptian medicine. As a result, this book challenges the traditional view of Greek science and medicine as being born purely from Greek intellectualism. Rather, the author suggests, Greek knowledge was developed in conversation with existing and earlier knowledge from other cultures.
