Ah, Kenneth. I can see you don't read subject headings--smile. The title is Early Greek Thinking: The Dawn of Western Philosophy, and the author is Martin Heidegger. That's probably why there's so much German in the book, also. I know people have addressed you as Dr. Cross. Are you a professor? A philosophy professor? My nephew almost has his master's in philosophy; he needs to pass a langauge exam, but it is't in Greek. smile Cindy --- Kenneth Cross <crossk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Please send me the name of the book and the author; > I can't find the book in > my files, but it should be there.
