520    In his 'Quaestiones naturales', Plutarch unmistakeably 
       demonstrates a huge interest in the world of natural 
       phenomena. The work of this famous intellectual and 
       philosopher from Chaeronea consists of forty-one natural 
       problems that address a wide variety of questions, 
       sometimes rather peculiar ones, and answers pertaining to 
       ancient Greek physics, including problems related to the 
       fields of zoology, botany, meteorology and their 
       respective subdisciplines. 0By providing a thorough study 
       of and commentary on this generally neglected text, 
       written by one of the most influential and prolific 
       writers from Antiquity, this book contributes to our 
       better understanding of Plutarch?s natural scientific 
       programme and, the condition and role of ancient natural 
       science in the Roman Imperial Era in general.
