	The story of how Lucretius', The Nature of Things, was found and brought to the modern world. At times it was over my head. I had to re-read some paragraphs to understand what was being said. I liked the synopsis of Lucretius' work. I also liked learning about the time of three popes. Interesting but need to read slowly to understand.
