About this book

From Myth to Reason?: Studies in the Development of Greek Thought by Buxton, Richard. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9780199247523.

It is often said that Greek civilization underwent a transition from myth to reason. But what does this assertion mean? Is it true? Were the Greeks special in having evolved our sort of reason, or is that a mirage? In this book, some of the worlds leading experts on ancient Greek myth, religion, philosophy, and history reconsider these fundamental issues.
