About the book
Ancient philosophers did not agree on how a person should live, what could be known or what made a life good. Their disagreements ran from early Greek inquiry through Plato and Aristotle to the schools that flourished in the Hellenistic world.
Julia Annas introduces these traditions through the questions that kept their arguments in conversation. Ethics, knowledge, happiness and the place of reason in human life recur, but the answers change from thinker to thinker. Ancient philosophy emerges as a continuing debate about how to understand the world and find a way to live within it.
