Ptolemy's Universe: The Natural, Philosophical and Ethical Foundations of Ptolemy's Astronomy
Liba Chaia Taub
Much has been written about Ptolemy's mathematical work, yet few attempts have approached his philosophical and cosmological ideas. By placing them within the broader context of Greek philosophy, mathematics and culture, Taub aims to provide insight into the nature of Greek scientific thought.
