520    "Anaximander, the sixth-century BCE philosopher of Miletus,
       is often credited as being the instigator of both science 
       and philosophy. The first recorded philosopher to posit 
       the idea of the boundless cosmos, he was also the first to
       attempt to explain the origins of the world and humankind 
       in rational terms. Anaximander's philosophy encompasses 
       theories of justice, cosmogony, geometry, cosmology, 
       zoology and meteorology. Anaximander: A Re-assessment 
       draws together these wide-ranging threads into a single, 
       coherent picture of the man, his worldview and his legacy 
       to the history of thought. Arguing that Anaximander's 
       statements are both apodeictic and based on observation of
       the world around him, Andrew Gregory examines how 
       Anaximander's theories can all be construed in such a way 
       that they are consistent with and supportive of each 
       other. This includes the tenet that the philosophical 
       elements of Anaximander's thought (his account of the 
       apeiron, the extant fragment) can be harmonised to support
       his views on the natural world. The work further explores 
       how these theories relate to early Greek thought and in 
       particular conceptions of theogony and meterology in 
       Hesiod and Homer"--|cProvided by publisher.
