{"product_id":"science-and-politics-in-the-benjamin-farrington-9781138201606","title":"Science and Politics in the Ancient World","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book, originally published in 1965, discusses the political implication of the spread of science in antiquity. It reveals how the real Greek spirit of scientific research was crushed by Plato and Aristotle, long thought-of as searchers for truth. Historian such as Polybius and Livey and the poets Pinder and Virgil are seen in a new light when set against this background of social struggle. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Benjamin Farrington\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 113820160X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138201606\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/22\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Benjamin Farrington","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48087709647103,"sku":"9781138201606","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0163fb7c-76db-436b-a7de-0ea2bb8108c1.jpg?v=1769100963","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/science-and-politics-in-the-benjamin-farrington-9781138201606","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
