The Greek Philosophers from Thales to Aristotle
Long renowned as one of the clearest and best introductions to ancient Greek philosophy for non-specialists, W.K.C Guthrie's The Greek Philosophers offers us a brilliant insight into the hidden foundations of Greek philosophy - foundations that underpin Western thought today. Guthrie unpacks the ideas and arguments of Plato and Aristotle in the light of their predecessors rather than their successors and highlights the achievements of thinkers such as Pythagoras. Combining philosophical insight and historical sensitivity, The Greek Philosophers offers newcomers a brilliant introduction to the greatest thinkers in ancient Greek philosophy.
A History of Greek Philosophy: Volume 6, Aristotle: An Encounter
All volumes of Professor Guthrie's great history of Greek philosophy have won their due acclaim. The most striking merits of Guthrie's work are his mastery of a tremendous range of ancient literature and modern scholarship, his fairness and balance of judgement and the lucidity and precision of his English prose.

The Greek Philosophers
W.K.C. Guthrie has written a survey of the great age of Greek philosophy - from Thales to Aristotle - which combines comprehensiveness with brevity.

Without him, our world and the Western intellectual tradition would be simply unrecognizable. Aristotle studied, and wrote and lectured on, every academic discipline you could probably ever imagine. His existence and work were critically important parts of the foundation of every subject of philosophy and science in existence today.
