520 1  "This is the first detailed and comprehensive account of 
       ancient Greek theories of the origins of the world. It 
       covers the period from 800 B.C. to 600 A.D., beginning 
       with myths concerning the creation of the world. It covers
       the cosmogonies of all the major Greek and Roman thinkers,
       as well as the debate between Greek philosophical 
       cosmogony and early Christian views. It argues that Greeks
       formulated many of the perennial problems of philosophical
       cosmogony and produced philosophically and scientifically 
       interesting answers." "The atomists argued that our world 
       was one among many worlds, and came about by chance. Plato
       argued that our world is unique, and is the product of 
       design. Empedocles and the Stoics, in quite different ways,
       argued that there was an unending cycle whereby our world 
       is generated, destroyed and generated again. Aristotle on 
       the other hand argued that there was no such thing as 
       cosmogony, and our world has always existed."--Jacket.
