I finished the part about pre-Socratic philosophers. I’m really glad to have their views put into context because theories of a sphere called “Love” surrounded by “Strife” now sound utterly ridiculous. But I found Grayling’s disclaimer that, at the time, philosophers had nothing but their own generalized experiences to extrapolate onto the world useful. All to turn into the recognizable atomism theory.
