Thomas Nail's inspired reading of Lucretius leaves us moderns with the kind of excitement the Romans must have felt as they first scrolled through that founding text of materialism. Nail makes ancient ideas erupt in a contemporary context, demonstrating their necessity to cutting-edge science and philosophy. Antiquity has never felt so alive.--Ryan Johnson, Elon University Following in the footsteps of Deleuze and Serres, Thomas Nail has rescued Lucretius as a philosopher of flux. In a reading at once daring and patient, the De Rerum Natura emerges as a text still capable of surprising us. Nail shows us that Lucretius truly is our contemporary.--Brooke Holmes, Princeton University
