Serviceable, but way too teleological. The people, the locations, the theories, the schools, all that is good. But with every instance of an ancient Greek cosmological or physical hypothesis that has some superficial resemblance to what we moderns know and the originating philosopher gets an implied gold star for being "almost right".
