With a new foreword by Scott Austin 'I hope that these essays may illustrate the thesis that all history is or should be the history of problem situations, and that in following this principle we may further our understanding of the Presocratics and other thinkers of the past.

Edited by Arne F. Petersen, Associate Professor in the Faculty of Humanities, University of Copenhagen.
