Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Biographical History of Philosophy, Vol. 2 of 2
Euclid, who must not be confounded with the great Mathematician, was born at Megara; date unknown. He had early imbibed a great love of philosophy, and had diligently studied the writings of Parmenides and the other Eleatics. From Zeno he acquired great facility in dialectics; and this continued to be his chief excellence, even after his acquaintance with Socrates, who reproved him for it as sophistical.
