1. Philosophy / C. History of Philosophy / 2. Ancient Philosophy / b. Pre-Socratic philosophy

5988	Anaximander produced the first philosophy book (and maybe the first book) [Anaximander, by Bodnár]
	Full Idea: Anaximander was the first to produce a philosophical book (later conventionally titled 'On Nature'), if not the first to produce a book at all.
	From: report of Anaximander (fragments/reports [c.570 BCE]) by István Bodnár - Anaximander
	A reaction: Wow! Presumably there were Egyptian 'books', but this still sounds like a stupendous claim to fame.
