CUP would be pleased to hear about your reading experience with this e-book at cup- [email protected]. I should like to dedicate this volume to my wife, Juliet. She knew me when, as a young student at Columbia College, I first became interested in the history of philosophy. She has supported me over more than half a century as I have researched and written on various aspects of that history. And in the three years of the preparation and completion of this volume, she has been an invaluable consultant, helping me overcome a host of crises. I hope that this volume is worthy of all of her help. Contents Acknowledgments Introduction Richard H. Popkin List of Contributors 1. Origins of Western Philosophic Thinking Introduction Richard H.
