Divination and human nature : a cognitive history of intuition in classical antiquity /

This volume casts a new perspective on the rich tradition of ancient divination - the reading of divine signs in oracles, omens and dreams. It shows how philosophers of the classical era interpreted the phenomena of divination as a practice closer to intuition and instinct than magic.
