This book explores the emergence of science in pre-modern Hellenistic Egypt, focusing on the Ptolemaic court's role in fostering cross-disciplinary knowledge. It argues that the court's appreciation for entertainment and mixed genres allowed physicians, mathematicians, and mechanicians to thrive, highlighting the historical significance of interdisciplinary science.
