Reviews

Professor Yamakawa's book, Visible and Invisible in Greek Philosophy, has the exceptional merit of using a special approach to illumine the philosophical landscape of ancient wisdom and trace vital continuities with modern scientific trends. The chapters of this book, published previously in proceedings of conferences and well known journals, are brought together to form a set of interrelated themes that deserve careful reading for their richness and originality. -- John P. Anton, Honorary President, The International Association for Greek Philosophy, University of South Florida
