description |
G.E.R. Lloyd is a most distinguished scholar. He is recognized for important contributions to the history and philosophy of Science. In the last decades, he has authored a considerable number of books and papers, comparing the development of science in early China and Greece. He developed a methodology, examining, for example, how the social and political context was a determinant of the development of scientific ideas. Comparing the scenarios of ancient Greece and China is present in many of Lloyd‟s works. But Lloyd scholarship has also another strand. He tries to explain why and how different individuals, of the same species, reveal different interests and preferences, talents and abilities, specificities in generating, organizing and sharing knowledge.
