Description: A History of Science - Hellenistic Science and Culture in the Last Three Centuries B.C. by George Sarton. Harvard University Press, 1959. Dust jacket is worn — there is wear and tear around the edges — please see photograph. Blue hard cover is good condition. The spine is firm. Lettering on spine is gilt. This book is clean and unmarked. From the dust jacket: "My life has been dominated by two passions — the love of science, or call it the love of rationality, and the love of humanities. It occurred to me very early that one could not live reasonably without science nor gracefully without arts and letters. (In this book) I shall necessarily devote much more space to ancient science than to ancient arts and letter but shall often refer to them, because we could never understand Hellenistic culture without their gracious presence. The whole past and the whole world are alive in my heart, and I shall do my best to communicate their presence to my readers." I offer returns within 30 days, if you find the book has been inaccurately described, as long as it is returned in the condition it was sent. I want all my customers to be satisfied, so please feel free to contact me. Please feel free to ask questions.
